(b) Features of a Multiple Shop

(i) It has standard shop fronts in every location for easy identification.

(ii) Specializes in one line of good or related range of goods.

(iii) It is centrally owned and managed.

(iv) All purchases are done at the headquarters.

(v) It has price uniformity throughout the branches.

(c) Advantages of a Multiple Shop

(i) It enables manufacturers to retail their own products by owning their own retail outlet.

(ii) Staff acn be transferred from one shop/branch to the other.

(iii) Goods not moving in one shop may be transferred to another shop.

(iv) Their standard shop front makes them easily identified by customers.

(v) It minimizes sharp practices as prices are fixed by the headquarters for all branches. ( Bulk purchases leads to lower cost).

Correct Answer: C. Ethene

Explanation

The correct answer is C. Ethene.

Ethene (commonly known as ethylene, C_2H_4) is a natural plant hormone that stimulates and hastens the ripening of fruits, opening of flowers, and shedding of leaves. It is widely used commercially to ripen fruits like bananas, tomatoes, and mangoes.

Correct Answer: B. cracking

Explanation

The correct answer is B. cracking.

Here's why:

• Cracking is a process used in petroleum refining where large hydrocarbon molecules (like those found in diesel) are broken down into smaller, more useful hydrocarbons (like those found in petrol/gasoline). Diesel molecules have longer carbon chains than petrol molecules. Cracking breaks these longer chains into shorter ones.

Let's look at why the other options are incorrect:

• A. Distillation: Distillation separates liquids based on their boiling points. You can separate petrol and diesel from crude oil by distillation, but you cannot distill diesel *into* petrol. Diesel is a heavier fraction; distillation would simply purify the diesel or separate it from even heavier components.

• C. Catalysis: Catalysis is the use of catalysts to speed up chemical reactions. While cracking often uses catalysts (catalytic cracking), catalysis itself is not the specific process of transforming diesel into petrol; it's a technique used within a process like cracking.

• D. Polymerization: Polymerization is the process of joining small molecules (monomers) to form larger molecules (polymers). This is the opposite of what's needed to get petrol (smaller molecules) from diesel (larger molecules).
