Question 1

Which of the following is true about handling events in React?

  • You use HTML event names like onclick in JSX

  • React uses addEventListener to bind events

  • React uses camelCase for event handler names

  • Event handlers in React are written in JavaScript only

Question 2

In React, how do you pass an argument to an event handler?

  • Using an anonymous function

  • By using an arrow function in JSX

  • Using the bind() method inside the render function

  • By passing arguments directly to the event handler

Question 3

What is the purpose of synthetic events in React?

  • To enhance event handling speed

  • To add custom events to the DOM

  • To normalize browser-specific event behavior

  • To improve the performance of JavaScript code

Question 4

How do you bind an event handler to a specific context in React?

  • By using this.handleEvent()

  • By using bind() inside the constructor

  • By defining the handler as an arrow function

  • By passing the event handler as a prop

Question 5

In the code snippet below, how can you pass an argument to the handleClick function?

JavaScript
function MyButton() {
    const handleClick = (name) => {
        alert(name);
    };
    return <button onClick={handleClick}>Click Me</button>;
}


  • onClick={handleClick('John')}

  • onClick={() => handleClick('John')}

  • onClick={handleClick, 'John'}

  • onClick={handleClick}

Question 6

What will be the output of the following code?

JavaScript
class App extends React.Component {
    handleClick = (event, message) => {
        console.log(message);
    };

    render() {
        return (
            <button onClick={(e) => this.handleClick(e, "Hello World")}>
                Click Me
            </button>
        );
    }
}


  • undefined

  • Hello World

  • e

  • null

Question 7

What is the correct way to bind this to the handleClick method inside the constructor?

JavaScript
class App extends React.Component {
    constructor() {
        super();
        // Complete the binding statement here
    }

    handleClick() {
        console.log("Button clicked!");
    }

    render() {
        return <button onClick={this.handleClick}>Click Me</button>;
    }
}
  • this.handleClick = handleClick.bind(this)

  • this.handleClick = this.handleClick()

  • this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this)

  • this.handleClick = handleClick

Question 8

Which of the following code will correctly handle an event inside a function component?

JavaScript
function App() {
    const handleClick = () => {
        console.log("Button clicked!");
    };

    return <button onClick={handleClick}>Click Me</button>;
}


  • The code is correct as it is

  • this.handleClick = handleClick.bind(this) should be added inside the function

  • handleClick() should be used in the return statement

  • handleClick should be passed as this.handleClick
