An ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume using several processes. Which of the processes results in the maximum work done on the gas?
1. adiabatic
2. isobaric
3. isochoric
4. isothermal

The figure below shows two paths that may be taken by gas to go from state \(A\) to state \(C.\) 
                    
In process \(AB,\) \(400~\text{J}\) of heat is added to the system, and in process \(BC,\)  \(100~\text{J}\) of heat is added to the system. The heat absorbed by the system in the process \(AC\) will be:
1. \(380~\text{J}\)
2. \(500~\text{J}\)
3. \(460~\text{J}\)
4. \(300~\text{J}\)

The standard enthalpy of vaporization ${∆}_{\mathrm{vap}}{\mathrm{H}}^{\mathrm{o}}$ for water at 100 ^oC is 40.66 kJ mol^–1. The internal energy of vaporization of water at 100 ^oC (in kJ mol^–1) is: 
(Assume water vapour behaves like an ideal gas.)

1. +37.56

2. –43.76

3. +43.76

4. +40.66

A refrigerator works between $4°\mathrm{C}$ and $30°\mathrm{C}$. It is required to remove 600 calories of heat every second in order to keep the temperature of the refrigerated space constant. The power is $(\mathrm{Take} 1 \mathrm{cal}=4.2 \mathrm{Joules})$

1. 2.365 W

2. 23.65 W

3. 236.5 W

4. 2365 W

Under the isothermal condition, a gas at \(300 \mathrm{~K}\) expands from \(0.1 \mathrm{~L}\) to \(0.25 \mathrm{~L}\) against a constant external pressure of 2 bar. The work done by the gas is:
1. \(30 ~\mathrm {J} \)
2. \(-30 ~\mathrm{J} \)
3. \(5~ \mathrm{kJ}\)
4. \(25~ \mathrm{J}\)

The volume \((V)\) of a monatomic gas varies with its temperature \((T),\) as shown in the graph. The ratio of work done by the gas to the heat absorbed by it when it undergoes a change from state \(A\) to state \(B\) will be:
