NDA GK Questions 2026

Statement 2 is wrong because slate is a metamorphic rock, formed when shale is squeezed and heated, not a sedimentary rock.

The Haber process is exothermic, not endothermic: nitrogen and hydrogen combine to form ammonia and release heat. In the Haber process, N2 + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3 gives out about 92 kJ for every two moles of ammonia formed.

Phloem sieve tubes are not like xylem vessels: sieve tubes are living cells with thin walls and sieve plates, while mature xylem vessels are dead, hollow tubes with thick lignified walls.

Cold dry air below and warm moist air above makes the atmosphere stable, which suppresses rising air; a thunderstorm needs the reverse, warm moist air near the ground and colder, drier air aloft.

Zambia lies north of the Zambezi river and is separated from South Africa by Zimbabwe and Botswana, so the two countries share no border.

The Bohr effect is the fall in haemoglobin's affinity for oxygen when carbon dioxide and acidity rise, so oxygen is unloaded where tissues need it most.

The Himalayan Frontal Fault lies on the southern edge of the range and separates the Himalaya from the Indo-Gangetic plains, not from Tibet.

Raipur, in the Chhattisgarh basin, receives about 1,200 to 1,300 mm of rain a year, more than any of the other three cities.

Arteries have the thickest walls of all blood vessels, not the thinnest, because they carry blood away from the heart under high pressure.

In Koppen's scheme for India, most of the Ganga plain falls in the Cwg type: a monsoon climate with a dry winter.

Heat from the Earth's interior sets up slow convection currents in the mantle, and these drag the rigid plates resting on it.

Lead nitrate breaks down only when it is heated strongly, so the reaction absorbs heat and is endothermic. On heating, lead nitrate gives lead oxide, brown fumes of nitrogen dioxide and oxygen: 2Pb(NO3)2 → 2PbO + 4NO2 + O2.

The correct answer is the Bloomberg Economy Forum 2026, on the sidelines of which the Union Minister spoke in an exclusive conversation about the peaceful character of India's nuclear programme and the power needs of an economy turning towards artificial intelligence.

The correct answer is Dr. Homi Bhabha, whom Dr. Jitendra Singh recalled as the architect of India's nuclear programme, saying that his vision continues to guide a journey built around peaceful application and national development.

The correct answer is 2070, the year Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh named for India's Net Zero emissions commitment while explaining why nuclear power matters to the country's energy plans.

Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh said the country's atomic ambitions have to be read against its longer development goals and its clean energy commitments, and named this figure as the nuclear power capacity India is targeting by 2047.

A fluid at rest presses on the walls and has pressure at every point, but that pressure is not the same at all depths.

Zero on the Kelvin scale lies 273.15 degrees below the freezing point of water. The Kelvin and Celsius scales have degrees of the same size, so T(K) = t(°C) + 273.15.

Nitrogen and oxygen combine only when a lot of energy is supplied. The nitrogen molecule is held by a very strong triple bond, so breaking it takes much energy, and the reaction N₂ + O₂ → 2NO absorbs heat.

He was Viceroy from 1926 to 1931, which covers the Dandi March of 1930.
