0%
77.123 cm

Explanation

Let A be the area of the cross-section

$V_1 = (90 - 74.8) A = 15. 2 A cm^3$

$P_1 = 76 - 74.8 = 1.2$ cm of Hg

$P_2 = (P - 75.4)$ cm of Hg

$V_2 = (90 - 75.4) A = 14.6 A cm^3$

$\displaystyle \frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2 V_2}{T_2} = \frac{1.2 \times 15.2 \times 283}{303 \times 14.6} = 75.4 + 1.17$

$= 76.57$ cm of Hg

Since the gas is ideal, therefore

$P_o V_o = RT$

Using the relation given when

$V = V_o$

$P = \displaystyle \frac{P_o}{2}$

Thus we get

$\displaystyle \frac{P_o}{2} (V_o) = RT$

The correct graph between PV and P of one mol of gas at constant temperature will be

Explanation

For an ideal gas

$PV=nRT$

Thus for a constant temperature,

$PV=constant$

Thus

$PV$ does not change even when P changes.

A gas is filled in a container at any temperature and at pressure 76 cm of Hg. If at the same temperature the mass of gas is increased by 50% then the resultant pressure will be

0%
38 cm of Hg
0%
76 cm of Hg
0%
114 cm of Hg
0%
152 cm of Hg

Explanation

$PV=nRT$

$PV=\dfrac{m}{M}RT$

$P=\dfrac{m}{M}\dfrac{RT}{V}$ also given that P=76cm of Hg

Given that mass of the gas is increased by 50%

Now

$P_{1}=\left(\dfrac{m+\dfrac{m}{2}}{M}\right)\dfrac{RT}{V}$

$=\dfrac{3}{2}\dfrac{m}{M}\dfrac{RT}{V}$

$=\dfrac{3}{2}P$

$\dfrac{3}{2}\times76$

Explanation

For an Ideal Gas,

$PV=nRT$

Here

$V$ is the volume of n moles of gas.

Thus for

$PV=(1)RT$ ,

$V$ is the volume of 1 mol of gas.

If number of gas molecules in a cubical vessel is increased from N to 3N, then its pressure and total energy will become

0%
four times
0%
three times
0%
double
0%
half

Explanation

For an ideal gas

$P \times V = N \times K\times T$

where P is the pressure, V is volume of the cubical vessel,
N is no. of molecules, K Boltzmann's constant and T is temperature

So as N increases to 3N, pressure also increases by three times.

And the total energy for an ideal gas

$E = \dfrac {3}{2} \times N \times K \times T$
Hence the total energy also increases by three times.

At what temperature will the mean molecular energy of a perfect gas be one-third of its value of 27

0%
10 $^1$ K
0%
10 $^2$ K
0%
10 $^3$ J

Explanation

Mean

$KE \propto T$
therefore at T=27 which in kelvin becomes 300 K
So KE will be 1/3 when temperature becomes 1/3 which is 300/3=100K
option (C)

The pressure of a gas in a container is 10

$^{-11}$ pascal at 27

$^o$ C. The number of molecules per unit volume of vessel will be

0%
$6 \times 10^{23} cm^{-3}$
0%
$2.68 \times 10^{19} cm^{-3}$
0%
$2.5 \times 10^{6} cm^{-3}$
0%
$2400 cm^{-3}$

Explanation

$10^5 Pa \equiv 6.023 \times 10^{23}$ (equivalence equation according to information given in question)

$10^{-11} Pa \equiv 6.023 \times 10^7$

$22400 cc \Rightarrow 6.023 \times 10^7$

$1 cc \Rightarrow \displaystyle \frac{6.023 \times 10^7}{2400} =2400 cm^{-3}$

The mean kinetic energy of a gas molecule at 27

$^o$ C is 6.21

$\times$ 10

$^{-21}$ Joule. Its value at 227

$^o$ C will be

0%
$10.35 \times 10^{-21} Joule$
0%
$9.35 \times 10^{-21} Joule$

Explanation

Mean KE=

$\dfrac{3kT}{2}$

$6.21\times 10^{-21}=3k\times 300/2$

$k=1.38\times 10^{-23}$

KE at 500 K ,

$KE=3\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 500/2=10.35\times 10^{-21}\ Joule$

$\gamma$ of triatomic gas (linear arrangement) molecules is

0%
$5/3$
0%
$7/5$
0%
$8/6$
0%
$9/7$

Explanation

The number of degrees of freedom for a triatomic gas with linear arrangement is 7.

We have the relation

$\gamma$

$=1+\dfrac{2}{f}$ (where

$f$ is number of degrees of freedom)

$\therefore \gamma=1+\dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{9}{7}$

0%
$19 \times 10^3 K$
0%
$38.65 \times 10^3$
0%
$11.3 \times 10^3 K$

Explanation

$The\quad kinetic\quad energy\quad of\quad gas\quad molecule\quad =\quad 3/2\quad kT\\ Energy\quad of\quad the\quad accelerated\quad electron\quad =eV\\ Hence\quad eV=\quad 3/2\quad kT\quad For\quad the\quad given\quad case\\ k={ 1.38 }\times 10^{ -23 }\\ 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 } \times 10 = 1.5 kT\\ T=\dfrac { 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 }\quad \times 10\quad \times 2 }{ 3k } \\ T={ 11.3\times 10 }^{ 3 } K$

An enclosure of volume 3 litre contains 16g of oxygen, 7g of nitrogen and 11g of carbondioxide at 27

$^o$ C. The pressure exerted by the mixture is approximately

0%
9 atmosphere
0%
8.3 atmosphere
0%
3 atmosphere
0%
1 atmosphere

Explanation

Total number of moles = number of moles of oxygen + number of moles of nitrogen + number of moles of carbon-di-oxide

$\dfrac { 16 }{ 32 } +\dfrac { 7 }{ 14 } +\dfrac { 11 }{ 44 } =1mole$

Molecular weight of Carbon-di-oxide = 44g

Molecular weight of Oxygen =32g

Molecular weight of nitrogen=14g

Using ideal gas equation,

$P=\dfrac { nRT }{ V } =\dfrac { 1 \times8.3 \times300 }{ (3\times{ 10 }^{ -3 }) } =8.3atm(nearly)$

Hence, Option B is correct.

0%
250 $^o$ C
0%
250 K
0%
250 $^o$ F
0%
2500 $^o$ C

Explanation

Since volume is constant i.e number of moles is constant.

$P_1$ and

$T_1$ are the initial pressure and temperature.

According to the question,

${ P }_{ 2 }=1.004{ P }_{ 1 }\\ { T }_{ 2 }={ T }_{ 1 }+1$

$\therefore \dfrac { { P }_{ 1 } }{ { T }_{ 1 } } =\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}=\dfrac { (1+0.004){ P }_{ 1 } }{ { T }_{ 2 } } \\ \Rightarrow { T }_{ 2 }=1.004{ T }_{ 1 }=({ T }_{ 1 }+1)$

$0.004T_1 = 1$

$\\ \Rightarrow { T }_{ 1 }=250K$

Hence, Option B is correct

0%
$ML^2 T^{-2} \theta^{-1}$
0%
$M^2 L^2 T^{-2} \theta^{-2}$
0%
$MLT^{-2} \theta^{-2}$

Explanation

using ideal gas equation

$R=\dfrac { PV }{ nT }$

dimensions of pressure

$M{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ -2 }$

dimensions of Volume

${L}^{3}$

number of moles is dimensionless

dimensions of Temperature

$\theta$

so, dimensions of R

$\dfrac { (M{ L }^{ -1 }{ T }^{ -2 })({ L }^{ 3 }) }{ \theta } =M{ L }^{ 2 }{ T }^{ -2 }{ \theta }^{ -1 }$

Hence,Option B is correct

0%
$0.4 \times 10^{-16} Nm^{-2}$
0%
$4.14 \times 10^{-16} Nm^{-2}$

Explanation

$P= \displaystyle \frac{nKT}{V} = \frac{10 \times 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times 3}{10^{-6}}$

$= 4.14 \times 10^{-16} Nm^{-2}$

0%
$2 \times 10^5 Pa$
0%
$10^5 Pa$
0%
$0.5 \times 10^5 Pa$

Explanation

Since both volume and Temperature is constant,

$\dfrac { P }{ n } =constant=\dfrac { P }{ m } \\ n=no.of\quad moles=\dfrac { mass\quad of\quad air(m) }{ Molecular\quad weight\quad of\quad water(M) }$

$\dfrac { { 10 }^{ 5 } }{ 2 } =\dfrac { P }{ (2+2) } \\ \Rightarrow P=2\times{ 10 }^{ 5 }Pa$

Hence, Option B is correct

Explanation

We have the relation PV=nRT (ideal gas equation)

$\dfrac{PV}{nR}$

Given, that pressure and volume are doubled i.e,

$P_1=2P$ ,

$V_1=2V$ .

$T_1=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{nR}$

$=\dfrac{\left( 2P \times 2V\right)}{nR}$

$=4T$

Given that T=27

Explanation

The internal energy of the room is given by the molecular motion and is called as the kinetic internal energy given by

$\displaystyle\frac{f}{2}nRT$ . Using the gas law we have

$PV=nRT$ and as the gas is mainly comprised of nitrogen and oxygen both being diatomic we take the degree of freedom as 5. Thus we calculate internal energy as

By Maxwell's speed distribution,

$<v>\alpha \sqrt { \dfrac { RT }{ M } }$ . Since the temperature of two gases is same, hence

$<v>\alpha \sqrt { \dfrac { 1 }{ M } }$

Also,

${ M }_{ He }=4{ M }_{ H }$

Hence,

$<{ v }_{ H }>=2<{ v }_{ He }>$

Answer is option C.

$\displaystyle\ \frac{P\times m}{kT}$

If 2 mole of an ideal monatomic gas at temperature

$T_{0}$ is mixed with 4 moles of another ideal monatomic gas at temperature

$2T_{0}$ , then the temperature of the mixture is

0%
$\displaystyle\ \frac {5}{3} T_{0}$
0%
$\displaystyle\ \frac {3}{2} T_{0}$
0%
$\displaystyle\ \frac {4}{3} T_{0}$
0%
$\displaystyle\ \frac {5}{4} T_{0}$

Explanation

Let T be the temperature of the mixture, then

$U$ =

$U_{1}+U_{2}$

where,

$U_1$ and

$U_2$ are the energies of the gas molecules.

$\Rightarrow$

$\displaystyle\ \frac{f}{2}(n_{1}+n_{2})RT$

$n_1$ and

$n_2$ are the number of gas molecules.

$R$ is the universal gas constant.

$=\displaystyle\ \frac{f}{2}(n_{1})(R)(T_{0})$ +

$\displaystyle\ \frac{f}{2}(n_{2})(R)(2T_{0})$

$\Rightarrow$

$(2+4)T$ =

$2T_{0}+8T_{0}$

(

$\because$

$n_{1}=2$

$n_{2} =4)$

$\therefore$

$T$ =

$\displaystyle\ \frac{5}{3}T_{0}$

How many degrees of freedom are associated with 2grams of He at NTP?

0%
3
0%
$3.01\times10^{23}$
0%
$9.03\times10^{23}$
0%
6

Explanation

Moles of He =

$\displaystyle\ \frac{2}{4}$ =

$\displaystyle\ \frac{1}{2}$
Molecules =

$\displaystyle\ \frac{1}{2}\times6.02\times10^{23}$ =

$3.01\times10^{23}$
As there are 3 degrees of freedom corresponding of 1 molecule of a monatomic gas.

$\therefore$ Total degrees of freedom =

$3\times3.01\times10^{23}$

$= 9.03\times10^{23}$

Kinetic theory of matter states about :

0%
three states of matter
0%
differences between the three states of matter
0%
fourth state of matter
0%
all of the above

Explanation

The kinetic theory explains the differences between the three states of matter. It states that all matter is made up of moving particles which are molecules or atoms.

In solids, the particles are so tightly bound to each other that they can only vibrate but not move to another location.

In liquids, the particles have enough free space to move about, but they still attract one another.

In gases, the particles are far apart and can move about freely since there is much free space.

Solids change into liquids, and liquids into gases when the particles gain more kinetic energy,

So, the correct option is

$B$

State whether true or false:

Linear molecules have

$3N-5$ vibrational degrees of freedom, whereas non linear molecules have

$3N-6$ vibrational degrees of freedom, where N is no. of atoms present in a molecule.

0%
True
0%
False

Maxwell's laws of distribution of velocities shows that

0%
the number of molecules with most probable velocity is very large
0%
the number of molecules with most probable velocity is small
0%
the number of molecules with most probable velocity is zero
0%
the number of molecules with most probable velocity is exactly equal to 1

A vessel contains air at a temperature of

$15^{0}C$ and 60% R.H. What will be the R.H if it is heated to

$20^{0}C$ ? (S.V.P at

$15^{0}C$ is 12.67 & at

$20^{0}C$ is 17.36mm of Hg respectively)

0%
262%
0%
26.2%
0%
44.5%
0%
46.2%

Explanation

By definition,

$\displaystyle\ \frac{V.P }{S.V.P }\times100$ =

$\displaystyle\ \frac{60}{100}$ (both VP and SVP are in room temperature)

$= \displaystyle\ \frac{(V.P)_{15}}{12.67}$

$(V.P)_{15} = 7.6 mm$

$of$

$Hg$
Now since unsaturated vapour obeys gas equation & mass of water remains constant so

$P$ =

$\left (\displaystyle\ \frac{nRT}{V} \right)$

$\Rightarrow$

$P\ \alpha \ T$

$\displaystyle\ \frac{(V.P)_{15}}{(V.P)_20}$

$= \displaystyle\ \frac{273+15}{273+20}$

$\Rightarrow$

$(RH)_{20}$ = 7.73 mm of Hg
So

$(R.H)_{20} =\displaystyle\ \frac{(V.P)_{20}}{(S.V.P)_{20}}\times 100$

$= 44.5$ %
