Answer 2

QUESTION 2.16:

Solution:

Each word is of size: 32 bits = 32/8 Bytes = 4 Bytes.

Program has been loaded starting from memory location :1000.

Instruction Size
2Words=8Bytes	1000	1001	1002	1003	1004	1005	1006	1007
1Word=4Bytes	1008	1009	1010	1011
1Word=4Bytes	1012	1013	1014	1015
2Words=8Bytes	1016	1017	1018	1019	1020	1021	1022	1023
1Word=4Bytes	1024	1025	1026	1027

After halt instruction memory location will be : 1027+1 = 1028.

Ans: 1028 Option D.
