Answer : 2. "Sun"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Sun Explanation: The water cycle is a term for the movement of water between the Earth's surface, the sky and underground. Water evaporates due to heat from the sun. Hence, the water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun. This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.

Answer : 3. "12"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 12 Explanation: Given  1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 x 0 + 1 + 1 Using BODMAS Rule, As multiplication precedes addition, 1 x 0 = 0,  Now, 10 + 0 + 1 + 1 = 10 + 2 = 12.   Hence, 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 x 0 + 1 + 1 = 12.

Answer : 3. "+4"
Explanation :

Answer: C) +4 Explanation: The given compound is NaHCO3 Sodium bicarbonate which is commonly known as Baking soda. Oxidation numbers are the charges on ions. When a neutral atom loses electrons it becomes positively charged. When a neutral atom gains electrons it becomes negatively charged.   Here the C represents the oxidation state of carbon in this compound. Compounds are electrically neutral, which is why we set the sum of the oxidation states equal to zero. Sodium has a +1 oxidation state. Hydrogen has a +1 oxidation state. Oxygen has a -2 oxidation state. There are three oxygen atoms, which means the total oxidation state provided by both oxygen ions is -6. Adding up these oxidation states we get: 1 + 1 + (-6) + C = 0 -4 + C = 0 => C = 4 This means the oxidation state of carbon in this compound is +4.
