RRB Group D GK Questions 2026

Static GK is not a separate section in RRB Group D, but it decides most of the paper's recall marks. General Science is 25 questions of Physics, Chemistry and Life Sciences at 10th standard (CBSE) level as per CEN 09/2025, and the 20 General Awareness questions lean on the standing facts behind the news: the sport, the award, the institution, the state, the river or the scientist an event touches. This page holds GK24's topic-wise GK notes for RRB Group D. The General Science notes go topic by topic through motion and force, work, energy and power, gravitation, heat, light, sound, electricity and magnetism, atomic structure and the periodic table, chemical reactions, acids, bases and salts, metals and non-metals, and carbon compounds, and the Life Sciences notes cover cells, the human body, nutrition, diseases, plants and genetics. The static GK notes cover Indian Railways zones and facts, national symbols, first and largest in India and the world, awards and honours, important days, books and authors, sports GK, art and culture, and the basics of Indian Polity, Geography, History and the Economy. Each note is short facts and tables that can be revised in one sitting. Read a note, then solve its quiz and the previous-year questions on this site to check what stayed.

RRB Group D GK Questions with Answers

Q1003.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-II 2018, GATEasy

Which one of the following is called dry ice?

  1. A.Solid carbon dioxide
  2. B.Liquid carbon dioxide
  3. C.Liquid nitrogen
  4. D.Liquid ammonia
Show answer
Correct answer: A. Solid carbon dioxide

It is called dry ice because, at ordinary pressure, it changes directly from solid to gas (sublimation) instead of melting, so it never makes anything wet.

Q1005.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2021, GATEasy

Which one of the following statements is not correct for light rays?

  1. A.Light travels at different speeds in different media.
  2. B.Light travels at almost 300 million metres per second in air.
  3. C.Light speeds down as it leaves a water surface and enters the air.
  4. D.Light speeds up as it leaves a glass surface and enters the air.
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Light speeds down as it leaves a water surface and enters the air.

Air is optically rarer than water, so light speeds up, not slows down, when it passes from water into air.

Q1006.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2022, GATEasy

A mass M is dragged by a pulley on a horizontal plane by a force anti-parallel to its displacement. The work done in pulling the mass M is

  1. A.zero
  2. B.positive
  3. C.infinite
  4. D.negative
Show answer
Correct answer: D. negative

When the force acts opposite to the displacement, the angle between them is 180°, and work W = F d cos 180° = −F d. Work done by a force is the product of the force, the displacement and the cosine of the angle between them.

Q1010.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2026, GATEasy

Consider the following statement : "Acids are substances that dissociate in water to give hydrogen ions H⁺ (aq), and bases are substances that produce hydroxyl ions OH⁻ (aq)." The above statement is based on which one of the following concepts?

  1. A.Brønsted-Lowry concept
  2. B.Lewis acid-base concept
  3. C.Arrhenius concept
  4. D.Conjugate acid-base concept
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Arrhenius concept

Defining acids and bases by the H⁺ and OH⁻ ions they release in water is exactly the theory Svante Arrhenius gave in 1884.

Q1011.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-II 2026, GATHard

Consider the following statements regarding the properties of hydrogen and water : I. Tritium, the isotope of hydrogen, is radioactive and emits low energy alpha particles. II. In the gas phase, the structure of water is linear. III. The basic principle of a hydrogen economy is the transportation and storage of energy in the form of liquid or gaseous molecular hydrogen. Which of the statements given above is/are not correct?

  1. A.I and II only
  2. B.II and III only
  3. C.I and III only
  4. D.II only
Show answer
Correct answer: A. I and II only

Tritium gives out beta particles, not alpha particles, and a water molecule is bent, not linear, so these two statements are wrong.

Q1013.NationalMedium

Which organisation runs the Namo Bharat regional rapid rail service?

  1. A.Delhi Metro Rail Corporation
  2. B.National Capital Region Transport Corporation
  3. C.Rail Vikas Nigam Limited
  4. D.Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation
Show answer
Correct answer: B. National Capital Region Transport Corporation

It built and runs the Namo Bharat service and it organised Namo Bharat Diwas in New Delhi, where its Managing Director Shalabh Goel welcomed the Union Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs and Power, Manohar Lal.
