Q31
Which of the following is correct option for free expansion of an ideal gas under adiabatic condition ?
A q = 0, Δ\Delta T \ne 0, w = 0
B q \ne 0, Δ\Delta T = 0, w = 0
C q = 0, Δ\Delta T = 0, w = 0
D q = 0, Δ\Delta T < 0, w \ne 0
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

For adiabatic condition, change in heat does not take place thus, q = 0.

If q = 0 then change in temperature does not take place thus,

Δ\Delta

T = 0. Also for a free expansion of ideal gas work done, W = 0 as there is no external pressure on it.

Q32
Enthalpy change for the reaction, 4H (g) \to 2H 2(g) is -869.6 kJ The dissociation energy of H - H bond is
A 434.8 kJ
B - 869.6 kJ
C + 434.8 kJ
D + 217.4 kJ
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

4H(g) → 2H 2 (g), ∆H = – 869.6 kJ Reverse the above equation 2H 2 (g) → 4H(g), ∆H = + 869.6 kJ Divide the above equation by 2, H 2 (g) → 2H(g),

ΔH=869.62\Delta H = {{869.6} \over 2}

kJ = 434.8 kJ

Q33
If the enthalpy change for the transition of liquid water to steam is 30 kJ mol -1 at 27 o C, the entropy change for the process would be
A 10 J mol -1 K -1
B 1.0 J mol -1 K -1
C 0.1 J mol -1 K -1
D 100 J mol -1 K -1
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

H 2 O(l)

300K\overset{{300K}}\longrightarrow

H 2 O(g) ∆H = 30 kJ mol –1

ΔS=ΔHT\Delta S = {{\Delta H} \over T}

=

30×103300{{30 \times {{10}^3}} \over {300}}

= 100 J mol –1 K –1

C A - (iv), B - (i), C - (ii), D - (iii)
D A - (ii), B - (i), C - (iv), D - (iii)
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

When K p > Q, rate of forward reaction > rate of backward reaction. \therefore Reaction is spontaneous. When

Δ\Delta

G o < RT ln Q,

Δ\Delta

G o is positive, reverse reaction is feasible, thus reaction is non spontaneous.

When K p = Q, rate of forward reaction > rate of backward reaction.

\therefore Reaction is in equilibrium.

When T

S >

Δ\Delta

H,

Δ\Delta

G will be negative only when

Δ\Delta

H = +ve. \therefore Reaction is spontaneous and endothermic.

Δ\Delta

H = ? ....(3) Equation (3) can be calculated as : (1) - 2(2) \therefore

We know, from Gibb's equation,

Δ\Delta

G =

Δ\Delta

H – T

Δ\Delta

= 373.4 K

Q37
Three moles of an ideal gas expanded spontaneously into vacuum. The work done will be
A infinite
B 3 Joules
C 9 Joules
D zero
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Since the ideal gas expands spontaneously into vacuum,, P ext = 0. \therefore Work done is also zero.

A 750 K
B 1000 K
C 1250 K
D 500 K
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Given reaction is :
