Consider a cycle followed by an engine (figure).
1 to 2 is isothermal,
2 to 3 is adiabatic,
3 to 1 is adiabatic.
Such a process does not exist, because:
(a) | heat is completely converted to mechanical energy in such a process, which is not possible. |
(b) | In this process, mechanical energy is completely converted to heat, which is not possible. |
(c) | curves representing two adiabatic processes don’t intersect. |
(d) | curves representing an adiabatic process and an isothermal process don't intersect. |
Choose the correct alternatives:
1. | (a), (b) | 2. | (a), (c) |
3. | (b), (c) | 4. | (c), (d) |
The pressure and volume of a gas are changed as shown in the P-V diagram. The temperature of the gas will:
1. | increase as it goes from A to B. |
2. | increase as it goes from B to C. |
3. | remain constant during these changes. |
4. | decrease as it goes from D to A. |
In an exothermic reaction, heat is evolved, and the system loses heat to the surrounding. The correct choice among the following for such a system are-
(a) qp will be negative
(b) will be negative
(c) qp will be positive
(d) will be positive
1. (a, b)
2. (b, c)
3. (c, d)
4. (a, d)
What is the change in internal energy for 5 moles of an ideal gas when it undergoes reversible compression from 100 K to 200 K?
(Given CV = 28 J K–1 mol–1)
1. | ΔU = 8kJ | 2. | ΔU = 14kJ |
3. | ΔU = 10kJ | 4. | ΔU = 2.8 kJ |
(i) | When liquid crystallizes into a solid, entropy increases. |
(ii) | When the temperature of a crystalline solid is raised from 0 K to 115 K then entropy increases. |
(iii) | 2 NaHCO3 (s) →Na2CO3 (s) +CO2(g)+H2O(g); Entropy increases. |
(iv) | H2(g)→2H(g) ; Entropy decreases. |

1. | 309 kJ mol–1 | 2. | 313 kJ mol–1 |
3. | 305 kJ mol–1 | 4. | 318 kJ mol–1 |
