Question

Choose the response that most accurately and completely answers the following question.
A Science student has exactly four flasks - 1, 2, 3, and 4 - originally containing a red, a blue, a green, and an orange chemical, respectively. An experiment consists of mixing exactly two of these chemicals together by completely emptying the contents of one of the flasks into another of the flasks. The following conditions apply
The product of an experiment cannot be used in further experiments.
Mixing the contents of 1 and 2 produces a red chemical.
Mixing the contents of 2 and 3 produces an orange chemical.
Mixing the contents of 3 with the contents of either 1 or 4 produces a blue chemical.
Mixing the contents of 4 with the contents of either 1 or 2 produces a green chemical.

If the student performs exactly one experiment, then which one of the following could be the colors of the chemicals in resulting three non-empty flasks?

पर्याय

• blue, blue, green

• blue, orange, orange

• blue, orange, red

• green, green, red

Answer 1

green, green, red
Explanation:
If contents of 4 and 2, i.e. orange and blue are mixed, then they produce the green chemical. Then, in resulting three non-empty flaskes contain green, green and red chemicals
