II)Cr2+ is reducing agent as its configuration changes from d4 to d3, when it is oxidized to Cr3+ .The d3 configuration have a half-filled t2g level which is very stable. On the other hand, the reduction of Mn3+ to Mn2+ results in the half-filled (d5) configuration which has extra stability hence Mn3+ acts as oxidizing agent.

1.ans:  No the tension in the string of a simple pendulum is not constant throughout the motion                                     

v is velocity of the bob and theta is the angle made by the string with vertical axis.

as v and θ both are variable T is also variable.

T is maximum at mean position as at mean position v is max and the angle is minimum.

2.ans: If the amplitude of the simple...

In mitosis, the prophase is further understood by dividing it into the given sub-stages:

1.Leptotene :

In this stage the nucleus enlarges in size in the chromosome. The chromosomes appear thin, thread-like and single-stranded in this stage. They have swollen or beaded structures along their length and their ends appear converged towards one side of the nucleus called bouquet.

2.Zygotene:

In this stage, the identical chromosomes come together and form bivalent or homologous pairs. Further, ...

zinc will react with sulphuric acid forming zinc sulphate dissolved in solution and releasing hydrogen gas.
