The figure given below shows three glass chambers that are connected by valves of negligible volume. At the outset of an experiment, the valves are closed and the chambers contain the gases as detailed in the diagram. All the chambers are at the temperature of 300 K and external pressure of 1.0 atm . Which of the following represents the total kinetic energy of all the gas molecules after both valves are opened? ( R=0.082 atm L K^(-1) mol^(-1)=8.314 JK^(_1)mol^(-1) )

A fixed container is fitted with a piston which is attached to a spring of spring constant k . The other and of the spring is attached to a rigid wall. Initially the spring is in its natural length and the length of container between the piston and its side wall is L . Now an dideal diatomic gas is slowly filled in the container so that the piston moves quasistatically. It pushed the piston by x so that the spring now is compressed by x . The total rotaional kinetic energy of the gas molecules in terms of the displacement x of the piston is (there is vacuum outside the container)

The sphere loses translational kinetic energy and gains rotational kinetic energy. b. The total energy of the sphere is conserved. c. The angular momentum of the sphere about any point OD the surface is conserved. d. The final velocity attained by the centre of mass is 2v_(0)//3 .

A gas of hydrogen - like atoms can absorb radiations of 698 eV . Consequently , the atoms emit radiation of only three different wavelengths . All the wavelengthsare equal to or smaller than that of the absorbed photon. a Determine the initial state of the gas atoms. b Identify the gas atoms c Find the minimum wavelength of the emitted radiation , d Find the ionization energy and the respective wavelength for the gas atoms.

An ideal mono atomic gas is taken through the cyclic process shown in fig. Linear expansion from A to B following by adiabatic compression back to original state

When a sample of ideal gas is changed from an initial state to a final state, various curves can be plotted for the process like P-V curve, V-T curve,P-T curve etc. For example, P-V curve for a fixed amount of an ideal gas at constant temperature is a rectangular hyperbola, V-T curve for a fixed amount of an ideal gas at constant volume is again a straight line. However, the shapes may vary if the constant parameters are also changed. Now, answer the following questions : Which of the following graphs is not possible for a fixed amount of ideal gas upon moving from initial state A to final state B :

State which of the following terms connected with change of state of matter i.e. - a] Melting b] Vaporisation c] Condensation d] Freezing - pertain to - (i] Conversion of a liquid into a vapour or gas [ii] Conversion of a liquid into a solid. [iii] Conversion of a solid into a liquid on heating.
