Why is an arp query sent within a broadcast frame?

An ARP query is sent in a broadcast frame because the querying host does not know which adapter address corresponds to the IP address in question. For the response, the sending node knows the adapter address to which the response should be sent, so there is no need to send a broadcast frame (which would have to be processed by all the other nodes on the LAN).


How will a broadcast frame that is sent by a host PC be handled on the net?

The broadcast will be received by all devices in the same network, but will not be forwarded outside the network (routers do not forward broadcast messages). So for the Internet, for example, you do not see broadcast packets.


A switch receives a frame with a destination MAC address that is currently not in the MAC table What action does the switch perform?

It duplicates the frame to all Ethernet ports, except the port it came from. A switch's MAC table is built not from destination addresses it receives, but by the source MAC addresses. So the frame is broadcast throughout the broadcast domain, until the end device with a matching MAC address responds to the broadcast, thus giving the switch a new source address to add to its MAC table.
