Please do not simply set test questions and expect answers. You must have answers in the same book in which you found the questions, and so ask about whatever it is in the answers that you are not clear about and then I will help you. My free lectures cover everything needed to be able to answer all these questions, and I do suggest that you watch them. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper F2 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
