Important Questions on Structure and Nature of Matter



The correct option(s) is (are)

(R = 8.314 J/mol K) (ln7.5 = 2.01)

[Heat of fusion of ice ; Specific heat of water ]

(Latent heat of ice is and )



The above diagram represents the thermodynamic cycle of an engine, operating with an ideal mono-atomic gas. The amount of heat, extracted from the source in a single cycle, is:






The isotherms of a gas are shown below :
Among the following,
(i) At , the gas cannot be liquefied
(ii) At point , liquid starts to appear at
(ii) is the highest temperature at which the gas can be liquefied
(iv) At point , a small increase in pressure condenses the whole system to a liquid
The correct statements are :




The three processes in a thermodynamic cycle shown in the figure are : Process is isothermal; Process is isochoric (volume remains constant); Process is adiabatic.
The total work done by the ideal gas in this cycle is, The internal energy decreases by, in the isochoric process. The work done by the gas in the adiabatic process is, . The heat added to the system in the isothermal process is


The pressure of the gas (in atm) at and respectively, are

The combination of plots which does not represent isothermal expansion of an ideal gas is
