Answer: Option D
Solution:
Addition of heat at constant pressure to a gas results in Raising its temperature and doing external work
When you heat a gas, both its vapor pressure and the volume it occupies increase. The individual gas particles become more energetic
and the temperature of the gas increases.

2. Which of the following items is not a path function?
A. Heat
B. Work
C. Kinetic energy
D. Thermal conductivity
Answer & Solution Discuss in Board (https://www.examveda.com/which-of-the-following-items-is-not-a-path-function-56529/) Save for Later
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Heat and work are path functions because they depend on how a sysem changes from initial to final state, hence they are state functions.
Thermal conductivity is mainly a function of the motion of the free electrons therefore property of a material, not a path function.
3. An actual engine is to be designed having same efficiency as the Carnot cycle. Such a proposition is
A. Feasible
B. Impossible
C. Possible
D. Possible, but with lot of sophistications
Answer & Solution Discuss in Board (https://www.examveda.com/an-actual-engine-is-to-be-designed-having-same-efficiency-as-the-carnot-cycle-such-a-proposition-is-56530/) Save for Later
utm_medium=v
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
According to the Carnot theorem, no engine operating between two constant temperature reservoirs can be more efficient than a Carnot
engine operating between the same reservoirs. This means that achieving the same efficiency as the Carnot cycle with an actual engine is
impossible, as it would violate the second law of thermodynamics.
Therefore, the correct completion is: "An actual engine is to be designed having same efficiency as the Carnot cycle. Such a proposition
is
Impossible."
4. The absolute zero pressure can be attained at a temperature of
A. 0°C
B. -273°C
C. 273 K
D. None of these
Answer & Solution Discuss in Board (https://www.examveda.com/the-absolute-zero-pressure-can-be-attained-at-a-temperature-of-56531/) Save for Later
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
Correct Option is (B)
The lower the temperature, the lower the pressure inside of the sphere.
If the exact values were plotted out, a linear relationship would be apparent.
Extrapolating this line to the point where there would be no pressure yields absolute zero, which is about -273.15 degrees Celsius.
5. Molecular volume of any perfect gas at 600 × 103 N/m2 and 27°C will be

7. Mixture of ice and water form a
A. Closed system
B. Open system
C. Isolated system
D. Heterogeneous system
Answer & Solution Discuss in Board (https://www.examveda.com/mixture-of-ice-and-water-form-a-56534/) Save for Later
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
A homogeneous thermodynamic system is defined as the one whose chemical composition and physical properties are the same in all
parts of the system, or change continuously from one point to another.
An example of a heterogeneous system is water with ice floating in it. This system has two homogeneous bodies, water and ice. The
chemical composition of the two phases is the same, but their physical properties differ drastically
8. The entropy may be expressed as a function of
A. Pressure and temperature

utm_medium=v
B. Temperature and volume
C. Heat and work
D. All of these
Answer & Solution Discuss in Board (https://www.examveda.com/the-entropy-may-be-expressed-as-a-function-of-56535/) Save for Later
Answer & Solution


Answer: Option D
Solution:
The entropy (S) is a thermodynamic property that quantifies the degree of disorder or randomness in a system. It can be expressed as a
function of various thermodynamic parameters. Option D, All of these, is the correct choice because entropy can indeed be expressed as
a function of pressure and temperature, temperature and volume, as well as heat and work.
Entropy as a function of pressure and temperature (S = f(P, T)) is applicable in various processes such as isothermal processes, isobaric
processes, and adiabatic processes where pressure and temperature changes occur simultaneously.
Entropy as a function of temperature and volume (S = f(T, V)) is relevant in processes like isentropic processes, where temperature and
volume variations are significant.
Entropy as a function of heat and work (S = f(Q, W)) is applicable in thermodynamic cycles such as the Carnot cycle, where the heat
transfer (Q) and work done (W) are crucial parameters.
Therefore, Option D correctly encompasses all these possibilities, making it the most suitable choice.

42. Water contained in a beaker can be made to boil by passing steam through it
A. At atmospheric pressure
B. At a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure
C. Any pressure
D. Not possible
Answer & Solution Discuss in Board (https://www.examveda.com/water-contained-in-a-beaker-can-be-made-to-boil-by-passing-steam-through-it-56569/) Save for Later
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure. When steam is passed
through water, it heats the water, and if the pressure of the steam is greater than the atmospheric pressure, it can make the water boil
even at a temperature below 100°C (the boiling point of water at atmospheric pressure).
This phenomenon is utilized in various industrial processes, such as in steam generators and pressure cookers. When steam is supplied
at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure, the water in the beaker can be made to boil even at a temperature higher than 100°C.
Among the options provided, the correct answer is Option B: At a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure. This is because boiling
at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure allows the water to reach its boiling point at a temperature higher than 100°C.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option B: At a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure.
