Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2025

Match List - I with List - II

List - I List - II
(A) Bronze (I) Cu, Ni
(B) Brass (II) Fe, Cr, Ni, C
(C) UK silver coin (III) Cu, Zn
(D) Stainless steel (IV) Cu, Sn

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A (A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
  2. B (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II) Correct answer
  3. C (A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
  4. D (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)

Solution

<p>To match the items from List I to List II, we need to understand the composition of each material:</p> <p><p><strong>Bronze</strong> is an alloy composed of copper (Cu) and tin (Sn).</p></p> <p><p><strong>Brass</strong> is an alloy made of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn).</p></p> <p><p>The <strong>UK silver coin</strong> primarily consists of copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni).</p></p> <p><p><strong>Stainless steel</strong> is an alloy that includes iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), and carbon (C).</p></p> <p>Based on these definitions, the correct matches are:</p> <p><p>(A) Bronze corresponds to (IV) Cu, Sn</p></p> <p><p>(B) Brass corresponds to (III) Cu, Zn</p></p> <p><p>(C) UK silver coin corresponds to (I) Cu, Ni</p></p> <p><p>(D) Stainless steel corresponds to (II) Fe, Cr, Ni, C</p></p> <p>These pairings illustrate the composition of each material and ensure accurate alignment between List I and List II.</p>
