Insulin contains sulphur. The minimum molecular weight of insulin is:

Two containers A & B contain ideal gases helium and oxygen respectively. Volume of both containers are equal and pressure is also equal. Container A has twice the number of molecules than container B then if & represent the rms speed of gases in containers A & B respectively, then -

The equation of state of a gas is given by, , where, and are constants. The isotherms can be represented by , where, and depend only on temperature and

Assertion: According to kinetic theory of gases, all the collision between molecule-molecule, and between molecule-walls of container are perfectly elastic, so speed of each molecule in an isolated gaseous system remains constant.
Reason: Distribution of speed among the molecules of gas does not change with time for the above system.

Assertion: The potential energy of ideal gas is zero.
Reason: At low pressure or high temperature the molecules are far apart and molecular interactions are negligible.
