The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both statements and determine their correctness and whether Statement 2 provides a valid explanation for Statement 1. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Statement 1**: - Statement 1 claims that for the same amounts of gas, carbon dioxide (CO₂) requires more heat than oxygen (O₂) for the same rise in temperature. - We know that the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance is given by the formula: \[ \Delta H = n C_p \Delta T \] where: - \(\Delta H\) = change in enthalpy (heat absorbed) - \(n\) = number of moles - \(C_p\) = heat capacity at constant pressure - \(\Delta T\) = change in temperature 2. **Analyzing the Parameters**: - Since the question states "if same amounts are considered," we can assume that \(n\) (number of moles) and \(\Delta T\) (change in temperature) are the same for both gases. - Therefore, the heat required will depend on the \(C_p\) values of CO₂ and O₂. 3. **Comparing Heat Capacities**: - Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a triatomic molecule, while oxygen (O₂) is diatomic. - The heat capacity at constant pressure (\(C_p\)) for different types of gases can be determined from their molecular structure: - For a linear triatomic gas like CO₂, the \(C_p\) value is: \[ C_p = \frac{9}{2} R \] - For a diatomic gas like O₂, the \(C_p\) value is: \[ C_p = \frac{7}{2} R \] - Since \(\frac{9}{2} R > \frac{7}{2} R\), it follows that \(C_p\) for CO₂ is greater than that for O₂. 4. **Conclusion for Statement 1**: - Since CO₂ has a higher heat capacity than O₂, it indeed requires more heat for the same rise in temperature. - Therefore, Statement 1 is **correct**. 5. **Understanding Statement 2**: - Statement 2 states that CO₂ being triatomic has a higher heat capacity than O₂. - This is consistent with our earlier analysis where we found that \(C_p\) for CO₂ is greater than that for O₂. 6. **Conclusion for Statement 2**: - Statement 2 is also **correct** and correctly explains Statement 1. ### Final Answer: Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true, and Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1.
