Ten moles of `(O_2)` gas are kept at temperature `T`. At some higher temperature `2T`, fourty percent of molecular oxygen breaks into atomic oxygen. Find change in internal energy of the gas. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::D Initial energy Using the relation, `U = (nf)/2 RT` we have, `n = 10, f = 5` for diatomic `O_(2)` gas `U_i = (10 xx 5)/2(RT) = 25 RT` Final energy fourty percent means 4 moles `O_(2)` breaks into `O`. So, it will become `8 moles` of monoatomic gas (O). remaining 6 moles are of diatomic gas `(O_(2)`. But now the new tempreature is (2 T). `:. Uf =(8 xx 3)/2(R) (2T) +(6 +5)/2(R)(2T) =54 RT` So, change in internal energy, `DeltaU = Uf -U_i = 29RT`. |

find the minimum attainable pressure of an ideal gs in the process `T = t_0 + prop V^2`, where `T_(0)n` and `alpha` are positive constants and (V) is the volume of one mole of gas. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B `p = (R T)/(V)` `(n = 1)` or `p = (R) /(V) (T_0 + alpha V^2)` For minimum attainable pressure `(d p)/(d V) = 0 or (- R T_0)/(V^2) + alpha R = 0` or `V = sqrt((T_0)/(alpha))` At this volume we can see that `(d^2 p)/(d V^2)` is positive or (p) is minimum. From Eq. (i) `p_(min) = (R T_0)/(sqrt(T_0//alpha)) + alpha R sqrt(T _0 // prop)` = `2 R sqrt (alpha T_0)`. |

What is the value of. (a) `0^@ F` in Celsius scale ? (b) (0 K) on fahrenheit scale ? |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C::D (a) `(T_C - 0)/(100) = (T_F - 32)/(180)` Putting `T_F = 0`, we get `T_C = -17.8^@ C` (b) `(T_C - 0)/(100) = (T_F - 32)/(180)` or `(T_K -273)/(100) = (T_K - 32)/(180)` putting `T_K = 0`, we get `T_F = -459.67^@ F`. |

At what temperature the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales of temperature give the same reading ?. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C::D `(T_C - 0)/(100) = (T_F - 32)/(180)` Putting `T_C = T_F`, we get `T_C or T_F = -40^@ C or -40^@ F`. |

An electric bulb of volume `250`cc was sealed during manufacturing at a pressure of `10^(-3)mm` of mercury at `27^(@)C`. Compute the number of air molecules contained in the bulb. Avogadro constant `=6xx10^(23)mol^(-1),` density of mercury`=13600kgm^(-3)` and `g=10ms^(-2)`. |

Answer» Correct Answer - A `pV = nRT` `:. n = (p V)/(RT) = ((rho g h)V)/(RT)` `= ((13.6 xx 10^3)(9.8)(10^-6)(250 xx 10^-6))/(8.31 xx 300)` `= 1.33 xx 10^-8` `:.` Number of molecules = `(n) N_A` `= (1.33 xx 10^-8)(6.02 xx 10^23)` `= 8 xx 10^15`. |

At what temperature the Fahrenheit and kelvin acales of temperature give the same reading ? |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B::D `(T_C - 0)/(100) = (T_F -32)/(180) or (T_K - 273)/(100) = (T_F - 32)/(180)` Putting `T_F = T_K`, We get, `T_F or T_K = 574.25`. |
