The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the incorrect statements for conformers, let's analyze each option step by step: ### Step 1: Understand the concept of conformers - Conformers are organisms that cannot regulate their internal environment and instead rely on external environmental conditions. Their physiological processes change according to the surrounding environment. ### Step 2: Analyze Option A - **Statement A:** "Aquatic animals can change osmotic concentration of body fluids with that of the ambient water osmotic concentration." - **Analysis:** This statement is true. Many aquatic animals, such as fish and amphibians, can adjust their body fluids' osmotic concentration to match that of the surrounding water. This ability helps them maintain osmotic balance. ### Step 3: Analyze Option B - **Statement B:** "Body temperature does not change with small fluctuations in environmental temperature." - **Analysis:** This statement is incorrect for conformers. Since conformers cannot regulate their body temperature, their body temperature does change with fluctuations in environmental temperature. Therefore, this statement is false. ### Step 4: Analyze Option C - **Statement C:** "Cannot maintain a constant internal environment." - **Analysis:** This statement is true. Conformers are unable to maintain a constant internal environment, as they are influenced directly by external conditions. ### Conclusion - From the analysis, we find that: - **Option A** is true. - **Option B** is false (incorrect statement). - **Option C** is true. Thus, the incorrect statement(s) for conformers is **Option B**. ### Final Answer The incorrect statement for conformers is **B**. ---

Compound 'A' and B react according to the following chemical equation. A_((g)) + 2B_((g)) to 2C_((g)) Concentration of either A or B were changed keeping the concentrations of one of the reactants constant and rates were mesured as a function of initial concentration. Following results were obtained. Choose the correct option for the rate equations for this reaction. {:("Experiment","Initial concentration of"[A]//mol L^(-1),"Initial concentration of"[B]mol L^(-1),"Initial rate of formation of"[c]//mol L^(-1)s^(-1)),(1,0.30,0.30,0.10),(2,0.30,0.60,0.40),(3,0.60,0.30,0.20):}

Chemical reactions are invariably associated with the transfer of energy either in the form of hear or light. In the laboratory, heat changes in physical and chemical processes are measured with an instrument called calorimeter. Heat change in the process is calculated as: q= ms Delta T , s= Specific heat = c Delta T = Heat capacity. Heat of reaction at constant pressure is measured using simple or water calorimeter. Q_(v)= Delta U = Internal energy change, Q_(P) = DeltaH, Q_(P) = Q_(V) + P Delta V and DeltaH = Delta U+ Delta nRT . The amount of energy released during a chemical change depends on the physical state of reactants and products, the condition of pressure, temperature and volume at which the reaction is carried out. The variation of heat of reaction with temperature and pressure is given by Kirchoff's equation: (DeltaH_(2) - DeltaH_(1))/(T_(2)-T_(1))= Delta C_(P) (At constant pressure), (DeltaU_(2) - DeltaU_(1))/(T_(2)-T_(1)) = DeltaC_(V) (At constant volume) The enthalpy change (DeltaH) for the reaction N_(2) (g) + 3H_(2)(g) rarr 2NH_(3)(g) is -92.38kJ at 298 K. The internal energy change DeltaU at 298 K is
