_______________Drugs which promote excretion of water & electrolytes from body through kidneys in the form of urine.
- A.
  
  Antihypertensives
- B.
  
  Diuretics
- C.
  
  Hypoglycemics
- D.
  
  Anticoagulants
Correct Answer
B. Diuretics

Explanation
Diuretics are drugs that promote the excretion of water and electrolytes from the body through the kidneys in the form of urine. They work by increasing the production of urine, which helps to remove excess fluid from the body. This can be beneficial in conditions such as hypertension, congestive heart failure, and edema, where there is an accumulation of fluid in the body. Diuretics are commonly used to reduce blood pressure and relieve symptoms associated with fluid retention. They are not used to treat hypoglycemia or as anticoagulants.

  Vinyl
- B.
  
  Alcohol
- C.
  
  Cyano
- D.
  
  Allyl
Correct Answer
C. Cyano

Explanation
The correct answer is Cyano because it is the only option that represents a functional group. Cyano refers to the presence of a cyano group (-CN) in an organic compound. Vinyl, Alcohol, and Allyl are not functional groups but rather specific compounds or groups of atoms within a molecule.

Identify the structure
- A.
  
  Benzimidazole
- B.
  
  Indole
- C.
  
  Acridine
- D.
  
  Isoquinoline
Correct Answer
C. Acridine

Explanation
Acridine is a heterocyclic compound that consists of three fused benzene rings. It is characterized by its aromatic properties and is commonly used in the synthesis of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and DNA intercalators. The other options, benzimidazole, indole, and isoquinoline, are also heterocyclic compounds but have different structures. Therefore, the correct answer is Acridine.

INH stands for Isonicotinic acid hydrazide.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The explanation for the given correct answer is that "INH" indeed stands for "Isonicotinic acid hydrazide." This is a commonly used abbreviation in the medical field, particularly in the context of tuberculosis treatment. INH is an antimicrobial drug that is used as a first-line treatment for tuberculosis and is known for its effectiveness in preventing the growth of the bacteria that causes the disease. Therefore, the statement "INH stands for Isonicotinic acid hydrazide" is true.

7.

Chemical name of the structure is
- A.
  
  2-bromo, 2-chloro methane
- B.
  
  2-bromo, 2-chloro propyl
- C.
  
  2-bromo, 2-chloro propane
- D.
  
  2-bromo, 2-chloro ethane
Correct Answer
D. 2-bromo, 2-chloro ethane

Explanation
The chemical name of the structure is 2-bromo, 2-chloro ethane because it contains two halogens (bromo and chloro) attached to the carbon chain, which has two carbon atoms. The prefix "eth" indicates that there are two carbon atoms in the chain, and the suffix "-ane" indicates that the molecule is an alkane with single bonds between the carbon atoms.
