The trans-alkenes are formed by the reduction of alkynes with

An aqueous solution contains 0.10 M H₂S and 0.20 M HCl. If the equilibrium constants for the formation of HS^– from H₂S is 1.0 $$\times$$ 10^–7 and that of S^2- from HS^– ions is 1.2 $$\times$$ 10^–13 then the concentration of S^2- ions in aqueous solution is :

The combustion of benzene(l) gives CO₂(g) and H₂O(l). Given that heat of combustion of benzene at constant volume is –3263.9 kJ mol^–1 at 25^oC; heat of combustion (in kJ mol^–1) of benzene at constant pressure will be :
(R = 8.314 JK^–1 mol^–1)

Let $$f\left( x \right) = {x^2} + {1 \over {{x^2}}}$$ and $$g\left( x \right) = x - {1 \over x}$$,
$$x \in R - \left\{ { - 1,0,1} \right\}$$.
If $$h\left( x \right) = {{f\left( x \right)} \over {g\left( x \right)}}$$, then the local minimum value of h(x) is
