To solve the question, we need to evaluate each of the given statements regarding humidity, evaporation, and dew point. Let's analyze each statement step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement I**: "Greater is humidity, lesser will be rate of evaporation of water." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. When humidity is high, the air already contains a significant amount of water vapor. As a result, the rate of evaporation of water decreases because the air cannot hold much more moisture. For example, drying clothes in a humid environment takes longer due to the reduced evaporation rate. - **Conclusion**: **Correct** ...

Refer to the given graph showing relationship between temperature and enzyme action. Select the correct statement regarding 'A' and 'B'. (i) 'A' shows the rate at which reaction decreases due to denaturation of enzyme molecules. (ii) 'B' shows rate at which reaction increases due to decreased kinetic energy of substrate. (iii) As temperature rises, more and more enzyme molecules are denatured and 'A' appears to fall. (iv) 'B' shows rate at which reaction increases due to increased kinetic energy of substrate and enzyme molecules.

Suppose the evaporation rate of water in a lake is given by the equation E=((T_(a)-T_(b))/(700)-(V)/(T_(w)))/(h^(4)) , where E is the evaporation rate in gallons/day. T_(a) is the air temperature, T_(d) is the dew point temperature, V is the volume of water in the table, T_(w) is the water temperature, and h is the number of hours the water is exposed to sunlight. Which of the following expresses T_(w) in terms T_(a), T_(b), V, E, and h ?

Select the correct set of statement/s: I. Work done by the surrounding in case of infinite stage expansion is more than single stage expansion II. Irreversible work is always greater than reversible work. III. On an ideal gas in case of single stage expansion and compression system as well as surrounding are restored back to their original states IV. If gas is in thermodynamic equilibrium is taken from A to state B, by four successive single stage expansions. Then we can plot 4 points on the P-V indicator diagram.

(i) No work is done by a gas at constant volume (ii) When a gas absorbs heat at constant pressure, its volume must change (iii) For the same change in temperature, the internal energy of a gas changes by a smaller amount at constant volume that at constant pressure (iv) The internal energy of an ideal gas is a function only of its temperature

(i) A conducting cylinder whose inside diameter is 4.00cm contains air compressed by a piston of mass m = 13.0 kg , which can slides freely in the cylinder shown in the figure. The entire arrangement is immersed in a water bath whose temperature can be controlled. The syetem is initially in equilibrium at temperature t_(1) = 20^(@)C . The initial height of the piston above the bottom of the cylinder is h_(i) = 4.00 cm. P_(atm) =1 xx 10^(5) N/m^(2) and g = 10m//s^(2) . If the temperature of the water bath is gradually increased to a final temperature t_(f) = 100^(@)C . Find teh height h_(f) of the piston (in cm) at that instant? (ii) In the above question, if we again start from the initial conditions and the temperature is again gradually raised, and weights are added to the piston to keep its height fixed at h_(i) . Find the value of teh added mass when the final temperature becomes t_(f) = 100^(@)C ?

Dehydration of salts is an important class of heterogeneous reactions. The salt hydrates during dehydration often dissociate in steps to form a number of intermediate hydrates according to the prevailing pressure of moisture in contact with the solid hydrates. Thus, copper sulphate pentahydrate on dissociation yield trihydrates, monohydrates and then the anhydrous salt in the above order as follows: Which of the following conditions is favourable for dehydration of CuCO_(4). 5H_(2)O ? i. Low humidty in air ii. High temperature iii. p_(H_(2)O) increases The correct option is:
