Q81
A thermally insulated vessel contains 150g of water at 0°C. Then the air from the vessel is pumped out adiabatically. A fraction of water turns into ice and the rest evaporates at 0°C itself. The mass of evaporated water will be closest to : (Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.10 × 106 J kg–1 and Latent heat of Fusion of water = 3.36 × 105 J kg–1)
A 35 g
B 130 g
C 20 g
D 150 g
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Let x grams of water is evaporated.

According to the principle of calorimetry, Heat lost by freezing water (that turns into ice) = Heat gained by evaporated water Given, mass of water = 150 g

(150x)×103×3.36×105=x×103×2.10×106\Rightarrow (150 - x) \times {10^{ - 3}} \times 3.36 \times {10^5} = x \times {10^{ - 3}} \times 2.10 \times {10^6}
(150x)×3.36=21x\Rightarrow (150 - x) \times 3.36 = 21x
x=1507.25=20.6\Rightarrow x = {{150} \over {7.25}} = 20.6

\therefore

x20gx \approx 20g

Vrms=3RTM=11.2×103m/s{V_{rms}} = \sqrt {{{3RT} \over M}} = 11.2 \times {10^3}m/s

\Rightarrow

T=M3R×(11.2×103)2T = {M \over {3R}} \times {\left( {11.2 \times {{10}^3}} \right)^2}

=

2×1033×8.3×125.44×106=104K{{2 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}} \over {3 \times 8.3}} \times 125.44 \times {10^6} = {10^4}K
Q83
An HCl molecule has rotational, translational and vibrational motions. If the rms velocity of HCl molecules in its gaseous phase is v\overline v , m is its mass and kB is Boltzmann constant, then its temperature will be :
A mv25kB{{m{{\overline v }^2}} \over {5{k_B}}}
B mv26kB{{m{{\overline v }^2}} \over {6{k_B}}}
C mv27kB{{m{{\overline v }^2}} \over {7{k_B}}}
D mv23kB{{m{{\overline v }^2}} \over {3{k_B}}}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

An HCl molecule, being diatomic, has: 3 translational degrees of freedom 2 rotational degrees of freedom 2 vibrational degrees of freedom The total number of degrees of freedom is 3+2+2=73 + 2 + 2 = 7.

According to the equipartition theorem, each degree of freedom contributes 12kBT\dfrac{1}{2} k_B T to the total energy.

So the total energy is given by: 72kBT\dfrac{7}{2} k_B T The translational kinetic energy is related to the root-mean-square (rms) speed v\overline{v} by: 12mv2=72kBT\dfrac{1}{2} m \overline{v}^2 = \dfrac{7}{2} k_B T Rearranging to solve for the temperature, we find: T=mv27kBT = \dfrac{m \overline{v}^2}{7k_B}

Q84
A massless spring (k = 800 N/m), attached with a mass (500 g) is completely immersed in 1 kg of water. The spring is stretched by 2 cm and released so that it starts vibrating. What would be the order of magnitude of the change in the temperature of water when the vibrations stop completely ? (Assume that the water container and spring receive negligible heat and specific heat of mass = 400 J/kg K, specific heat of water = 4184 J/kg K)
A 10–3 K
B 10–1 K
C 10–5K
D 10–4 K
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

By law of conservation of energy

12kx2=(m1s1+m2s2)ΔT{1 \over 2}k{x^2} = \left( {{m_1}{s_1} + {m_2}{s_2}} \right)\Delta T
ΔT=16×1024384=3.65×105\Delta T = {{16 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}} \over {4384}} = 3.65 \times {10^{ - 5}}

Q85
The specific heats, CP and CV of a gas of diatomic molecules, A, are given (in units of J mol–1 K–1) by 29 and 22, respectively. Another gas of diatomic molecules, B, has the corresponding values 30 and 21. If they are treated as ideal gases, then :-
A A is rigid but B has a vibrational mode
B A has a vibrational mode but B has none
C A has one vibrational mode and B has two
D Both A and B have a vibrational mode each
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

For A:

CpCv=γ=1+2f=2922{{{C_p}} \over {{C_v}}} = \gamma = 1 + {2 \over f} = {{29} \over {22}}

It gives f = 6.3 \approx 6 (3 translational, 2 rotational and 1 vibrational) For B:

CpCv=γ=1+2f=3021{{{C_p}} \over {{C_v}}} = \gamma = 1 + {2 \over f} = {{30} \over {21}}

\therefore f = 4.67 \approx 5 (3 translational, 2 rotational, no vibrational)

Q86
A vessel contains 14 g14 \mathrm{~g} of nitrogen gas at a temperature of 27C27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. The amount of heat to be transferred to the gas to double the r.m.s speed of its molecules will be : Take R=8.32 J mol1k1\mathrm{R}=8.32 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \,\mathrm{k}^{-1}.
A 2229 J
B 5616 J
C 9360 J
D 13,104 J
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

n = 0.5 T = 300 For vrms to be doubled T' = 4 ×\times 300 = 1200 \Rightarrow Heat transferred

=(0.5)(52)(8.32)(900)= (0.5)\left( {{5 \over 2}} \right)(8.32)(900)

One mole of ideal gas passes through a process where pressure and volume obey the relation P=P0[112(V0V)2]P = {P_0}\left[ {1 - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{{V_0}} \over V}} \right)}^2}} \right]. Here P0 and V0 are constants. Calculate the change in the temperature of the gas if its volume changes form V0 to 2V0

B 12P0V0R{1 \over 2}{{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R}
C 54P0V0R{5 \over 4}{{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R}
D 14P0V0R{1 \over 4}{{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Given

P=Po{112(VoV)2};P = {P_o}\left\{ {1 - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{{V_o}} \over V}} \right)}^2}} \right\};

...(i) As n = 1 mole \therefore PV = nRT = RT \Rightarrow P =

RTV{{RT} \over V}

....(ii) From (i) and (ii), we get

RTV=P0[112(V0V)2]{{RT} \over V} = {P_0}\left[ {1 - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{{V_0}} \over V}} \right)}^2}} \right]

\Rightarrow T =

VR×P0[112(V0V)2]{V \over R} \times {P_0}\left[ {1 - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{{V_0}} \over V}} \right)}^2}} \right]

Case 1 : when V = V0 then Ti =

V0R×P0[112(V0V0)2]{{{V_0}} \over R} \times {P_0}\left[ {1 - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{{V_0}} \over {{V_0}}}} \right)}^2}} \right]

=

V0P02R{{{V_0}{P_0}} \over {2R}}

Case 2 : when V = 2V0 then Tf =

2V0R×P0[112(V02V0)2]{{2{V_0}} \over R} \times {P_0}\left[ {1 - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{{V_0}} \over {2{V_0}}}} \right)}^2}} \right]

=

74P0V0R{7 \over 4}{{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R}

Then

Δ\Delta

T = Tf - Ti =

74P0V0RP0V02R{7 \over 4}{{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R} - {{{P_0}{V_0}} \over {2R}}

=

P0V0R(7412){{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R}\left( {{7 \over 4} - {1 \over 2}} \right)

=

54P0V0R{5 \over 4}{{{P_0}{V_0}} \over R}

C 15.7 J/mol K
D 19.7 J/mol K
Correct Answer

fmix=n1f1+n2f2n1+n2{f_{mix}} = {{{n_1}{f_1} + {n_2}{f_2}} \over {{n_1} + {n_2}}}
2×3+3×55=215\Rightarrow {{2 \times 3 + 3 \times 5} \over 5} = {{21} \over 5}
