In order to saturate it, the structure should have a structure similar to Butane
so there are 4 atoms of Hydrogen missing if we considered this to be Butane.
A molecule is a group of atoms that are covalently bonded.

The question states how many MOLECULES are needed ...
One hydrogen molecule contain 2 hydrogen atoms

So 2 molecules of Hydrogen will have 4 atoms of Hydrogen
Thus the ans. is B

How exactly is the answer D. A detailed explanation would be appreciated

As a salt of a strong acid (H2SO4) and weak base (NH3), its solution is acidic.So it will react with a base not an acid to form Ammonia.Also you can sometimes spot the 'odd one out' in MCQs to give you the answer as in this case only one option is acid while others are bases so the answer must be the one acid.

Oh yeah i did read somewhere that bases react with ammonium compounds to release ammonia
Thanks for the explanation

It is mentioned in the properties of Alkalis that they give off ammonia gas when warmed with ammounium salts. So all three are alkalis and would liberate ammonia gas. If ammonium sulphate reacts with H2SO4, again, ammounium sulphate and Acid forms and I don't even think this reaction would occur.

-Question number 1 in part bi why is the answer 47 when they've asked for a CHANGE in velocity? Plus how do you claculate ques 2 bii
-And in question number 4 the answer is that resistance INCREASES with increase in temperature but I've read it somewhere that resistance would decrease with increase in temp!
-And how to know the frequency in qs 5? Plus in a CRO while drawing the waves how will we know how much boxes do we have to draw for the xaxis as in the time base situation?
-Qs no 9 : how to draw the rays? wouldnt it get refracted ??
Please somebody explain it to me!
