The document presents a series of database assignments focused on functional dependencies and normalization forms, including tasks to identify keys, candidate keys, and assess relations for 2NF, 3NF, and BCNF. It includes specific examples of relation schemes and their corresponding functional dependencies. The assignments require determining the normal forms of various relations and converting them if necessary.

DBE ASSIGNMENT-II
1. Consider the relation scheme R = {E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N} and the set of
functional dependencies {{E, F} -> {G}, {F} -> {I, J}, {E, H} -> {K, L}, K -> {M}, L -> {N} on R. What is the key for R? 2. Consider a relation scheme R = (A, B, C, D, E, H) on which the following functional dependencies hold: {A–>B, BC–> D, E–>C, D–>A}. What are the candidate keys of R? 3. Given a relation R( P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y) and the Functional Dependency set FD = { PQ → R, PS → VW, QS → TU, P → X, W → Y }. Determine whether the given R is in 2NF? If not convert it into 2 NF. 4. Given a relation R( A, B, C, D, E) and Functional Dependency set FD = { A → B, B → E, C → D}. Determine whether the given R is in 2NF? If not convert it into 2 NF. 5. Given a relation R( X, Y, Z, W, P) and Functional Dependency set FD = { X → Y, Y → P, and Z → W}. Determine whether the given R is in 3NF? If not convert it into 3 NF. 6. Given a relation R( P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y) and Functional Dependency set FD = { PQ → R, P → ST, Q → U, U → VW, and S → XY}. Determine whether the given R is in 3NF? If not convert it into 3 NF. 7. Given a relation R( X, Y, Z) and Functional Dependency set FD = {XY → Z, Z → Y }. Determine whether the given R is in BCNF? If not convert it into BCNF. 8. Given a relation R( P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X) and Functional Dependency set FD = { PQ → R, QS → TU, PS → VW, and P → X }. Determine whether the given R is in which normal form?
