Solution

(i) Here,
n = 20 (Even number)
Therefore, the middle term is the $(\frac{n}{2} + 1)$ th term, i.e., the 11th term.
$Now, T_{11} = T_{10 + 1} = {}^{20}C_{10} {(\frac{2}{3} x)}^{20 - 10} {(\frac{3}{2 x})}^{10} = {}^{20}C_{10} \frac{2^{10}}{3^{10}} \times \frac{3^{10}}{2^{10}} x^{10 - 10} = {}^{20}C_{10}$

(ii) Here,
n = 12 (Even number)
Therefore, the middle term is the $(\frac{n}{2} + 1) th$ i.e. 7th term
$Now, T_{7} = T_{6 + 1} = {}^{12}C_{6} {(\frac{a}{x})}^{12 - 6} (b x)^{6} = {}^{12}C_{6} a^{6} b^{6} = \frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2} a^{6} b^{6} = 924 a^{6} b^{6}$

(iii) Here,
n = 10 (Even number)
Therefore, the middle term is the $(\frac{n}{2} + 1) th$ i.e. 6th term
$Now, T_{6} = T_{5 + 1} = {}^{10}C_{5} (x^{2})^{10 - 5} {(\frac{- 2}{x})}^{5} = - \frac{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2} \times 32 x^{5} = - 8064 x^{5}$

(iv) Here,
n = 10 (Even number)
Therefore, the middle term is the $(\frac{n}{2} + 1) th$ i.e. 6th term
$Now, T_{6} = T_{5 + 1} = {}^{10}C_{5} {(\frac{x}{a})}^{10 - 5} {(\frac{- a}{x})}^{5} = - \frac{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2} = - 252$
