D says non-metal and non-metals form negative ions so they can't be in positive ion state.
They can't lose electrons only gain them. To form positive ions they must have lost an electron which does not happen.

No, but Hydrogen has positive ions when it discharges on cathode. That's the problem. D can be Hydrogen.

So you are saying the voltmeter itself has a potential difference o_O
And the voltage of the voltmeter is the reading of the voltmeter.. which is very close to the EMF of the cell?
Of course since electric potential is expended due to high resistance of voltmeter(P=I *R) it wud register a p.d

The pivot does not balance the ruler,the moment provided by newton meter equalizes the other moment.Of course the meter exerts a foce but tht force only creates an opposing moment and dose not cancel the weight force of the object as it is not in line with weight..Like I said earlier if it were to be exactly below (i.e in dirct line witht he weight OF THE BLOCK) then it WUD cancel the weight of the block and picvot wud exert 1.2 N coz it needs to oppose weight of scale alone
iss tarah ka sawal paper main na ayay nae to phir wohee A or C walee larai hogee :p

Can you draw a diagram?

The pivot should only exert 1.2 Newtons since Newton meter moment cancels the 4N weight moment.

It cancels the moment but NOT the weight..See tht,s the confusing part.
But let me illustrate.
Consider a balanced metre rule on a pivot(50 cm mark) now two weight are added on opp sides of pivot such tht they balance overall.Does the pivot exert no force?
No infact it wud exert force to oppose weight of rule and combined weight of two of thoses weights.Remember only moments are equalized and the weight still acts downwards;there,s to be sth tht opposes their weight as well and tht is pivotal exertion(force

C is anode which should show oxidation
D is cathode which should show reduction
Lekin dono sahi lag rahe hain. :|
