The same amount of heat is supplied to equimolar masses of hydrogen and helium, under constant pressure. The work done by the two gases, \(H_2\) and \(He,\) are \(W_1\) and \(W_2.\) Then:
1. \(W_1>W_2\)
2. \(W_1<W_2\)
3. \(W_1=W_2\)
4. \(W_1\) and \(W_2\) cannot be compared unless the temperatures are known.

An ideal monoatomic gas at a temperature of \(300\) K and a pressure of \(10\) atm is suddenly allowed to expand into vacuum so that its volume is doubled. No exchange of heat is allowed to take place between the gas and its surroundings during the process. After equilibrium is reached, the final temperature is:
1.  \(300\) K 2.  \(\dfrac{300}{2^{5/3}}\) K
3. \(\dfrac{300}{2^{2/3}}\) K 4.  \(600\) K

Two monoatomic gases \(A,B\) are taken in two parts of a vessel having equal volumes \(V_0.\) The gases are at the same pressure \(P_0\) but at temperature of \(300~\text K\) and \(600~\text K.\) There is a partition between the parts of the vessel. The partition is removed, and the gases are allowed to mix. The vessel, as a whole, is insulated. The final temperature of the system is:

1. \(450~\text K\)
2. \(400~\text K\)
3. \(500~\text K\)
4. \(550~\text K\)

An ideal gas forms the working substance of a Carnot engine, and is taken around the Carnot cycle. We form the integral:    \(I=\int\dfrac{dQ}{T},\)
where \(dQ\) is the heat supplied to the gas and \(T\) is the temperature of the gas. The integral is evaluated over the entire cycle. The value of the integral \(I\) is:
1. zero
2. negative
3. positive
4. non-negative(positive or zero)

An ideal mono-atomic gas undergoes an expansion, keeping its temperature constant, but its volume increases two-fold. The same amount (number of moles) of a diatomic gas undergoes the same process. If the heat supplied in the first case be \(Q_1\) and in the second be \(Q_2,\) then:
1. \(Q_1=Q_2\) 2. \(5Q_1=3Q_2\)
3. \(Q_1=2Q_2\) 4. \(Q_2=2Q_1\)
