Answers:

1- c

2- a

3- e

4-a

5- d

Explanation 1-5:

We will start with the following information,

Only one person sits to the right of the one who likes milk chocolate. No one sits to the right of the one who likes vanilla ice cream. It means that the one who likes milk chocolate sits at the second from the right end of the row.

Six persons sit between the one who likes vanilla ice cream and the one who likes strawberry ice-cream. The one who likes dark chocolate sits third to the left of the one who likes strawberry ice cream. Two persons sit between the one who likes dark chocolate and the one who likes milk chocolate, who is not a neighbour of the one who likes vanilla ice cream.

Thus the final arrangement is as follows-

6- a

7- b

8- d

9- b

10- c

Explanation:

We will start with the given information, Kanika is sitting in the exact middle of the row. Two persons sit between Kanika and Raghav who faces north.  Suman is on the eight right of Kanika and faces the opposite direction of Kanika. Jitesh is sitting third from the left end of the row and faces south. Jitesh and Raghav are not the immediate neighbours of each other.

For this four cases will be formed –

Soni is sitting exactly between Suman and Kanika and she faces south. Soni is not an immediate neighbour of Raghav. Case 1 and 2.a will get rejected as Soni is an immediate neighbour of Raghav.

There are more than 7 persons but less than 9 persons to the left of Kanika. Tara is on the extreme right end and she faces the same direction as of Suman.  Thus the final arrangement is as follows-
