RRB NTPC GK Questions 2026

Static General Knowledge makes up the rest of the General Awareness section in RRB NTPC, and the notices name its topics: General Science and Life Science up to Class 10, History of India and the freedom struggle, Physical, Social and Economic Geography of India and the world, Indian Polity and Governance, Indian Economy, Art and Culture, Indian Literature, Monuments and Places, Flora and Fauna, Famous Personalities, the UN and other world organisations, environmental issues, Transport Systems in India, Important Government and Public Sector Organisations, Common Abbreviations, and Basics of Computers and Computer Applications. RRB frames these as short factual questions: the unit of a physical quantity, the year of a battle, the article of the Constitution, the river a city stands on, the full form of an abbreviation, the headquarters of an organisation. GK24's GK notes on this page cover each topic in English and Hindi, arranged the way the syllabus lists them, with the facts RRB tends to ask placed first. Work through one topic at a time, note the lists (national parks, dances, articles, schedules, awards), and pair each topic with its quiz on GK24 to check what has stayed with you.

RRB NTPC GK Questions with Answers

Q2062.General ScienceAsked in: CDS · CDS-I 2024, GKMedium

The correct order of atomic radius of Li, Na, Be and O is

  1. A.Na > Li > Be > O
  2. B.Na > Be > Li > O
  3. C.Be > Li > Na > O
  4. D.O > Be > Li > Na
Show answer
Correct answer: A. Na > Li > Be > O

Two trends of the periodic table decide the order. Going down a group, atomic radius increases because each new period adds an electron shell; so sodium, in period 3, is larger than lithium, in period 2, of the same group 1.

Q2063.General ScienceAsked in: CDS · CDS-I 2025, GKEasy

Why does the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum look 'rough' under a microscope ?

  1. A.Due to the presence of ribosomes on its surface
  2. B.Due to the absence of ribosomes on its surface
  3. C.Due to the presence of lysosomes on its surface
  4. D.Due to the presence of mitochondria on its surface
Show answer
Correct answer: A. Due to the presence of ribosomes on its surface

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a network of membrane tubes and sacs inside the cell. Part of it is studded on the outside with tiny granules called ribosomes, which give it a dotted, rough look under an electron microscope; this part is the rough ER.

Q2064.General ScienceAsked in: CDS · CDS-II 2026, GKEasy

An aqueous solution of an acid conducts electricity. This is because

  1. A.It contains hydrogen ion
  2. B.It contains water molecules
  3. C.Electricity passes through it
  4. D.It generates electricity
Show answer
Correct answer: A. It contains hydrogen ion

When an acid such as hydrochloric acid dissolves in water, it splits into ions: hydrogen ions (H⁺, which join water molecules as hydronium ions, H₃O⁺) and negative ions such as chloride (Cl⁻).

Q2066.General ScienceAsked in: CDS · CDS-I 2018, GKMedium

A wire of copper having length l and area of cross-section A is taken and a current I is flown through it. The power dissipated in the wire is P. If we take an aluminium wire having same dimensions and pass the same current through it, the power dissipated will be

  1. A.P
  2. B.< P
  3. C.> P
  4. D.2P
Show answer
Correct answer: C. > P

The power turned into heat in a wire carrying a current I is P = I²R, and the resistance of a wire is R = ρl/A, where ρ is the resistivity of its material.

Q2068.General ScienceAsked in: CDS · CDS-I 2025, GKEasy

Myopia is also known as :

  1. A.Far-sightedness
  2. B.Near-sightedness
  3. C.Cataract
  4. D.Presbyopia
Show answer
Correct answer: B. Near-sightedness

A person with myopia sees nearby objects clearly but finds distant objects blurred, which is why the defect is called near-sightedness or short-sightedness.

Q2069.General ScienceAsked in: CDS · CDS-II 2026, GKEasy

The mass of one mole of a substance in grams is called its

  1. A.Kilo-gram mass
  2. B.Gram-mass
  3. C.Molar-mass
  4. D.All the above
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Molar-mass

The mass of one mole of any substance, expressed in grams, is by definition its molar mass. One mole contains the Avogadro number of particles, about 6.022 × 10 23, so the molar mass links the mass we can weigh to the number of atoms or molecules present.

Q2071.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2019, GATEasy

A fuse wire must be

  1. A.conducting and of low melting point
  2. B.conducting and of high melting point
  3. C.insulator and of high melting point
  4. D.insulator and of low melting point
Show answer
Correct answer: A. conducting and of low melting point

A fuse must carry the normal current, so it must conduct, and it must melt quickly when the current becomes too large.

Q2074.Art & CultureAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2025, GATEasy
