    Statement 1: According to the transition state theory, for the formation of an activated complex, one of the vibrational degree of freedom is converted into the translational degree of freedom. Statement 2: The energy of the activated complex is higher than the energy of the reactant molecules.

    Mechanical energy exists in two forms : kinetic energy and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body b y virtue of its position or configuration. These two forms of energy are inter- convertible. If no other form of energy is involved in a process. The sum of kinetic energy and potential energy always remains constant. A particle of mass m has half the kinetic energy of another particle of mass m//2 . IF the speed of the heavier particle in increased by 2 ms^(-1) , its new kinetic energy equal the original kinetic energy of the lighter particle. The ratio of the original speed of the lighter and heavier particles is

    Statement 1: During the reduction of ZnO to Zn, C is more efficient than CO. Statement 2: The standard free energy of formation of CO_2 from CO is always higher than that of ZnO.

    Statement I: The total translational energy of all the molecules of a given mass of an ideal gas is 1.5 times the product of its pressure and its volume Statement II: The molecules of a gas collide with each other and the velocities of the molecules change due to the collisions.

    Statement I : A block of mass m starts moving on a rough horizotnal surface with a velocity v. It stops due to friction between the block and the surface after moving through a certain distance. The surface is now tilted to an angle of 30^(@) with the horizontal and the same block is made to go up on the surface with the same initial velocity u. The decrease in the mechanical energy in the second situation is smaller than that in the first situation. Statement II : The coefficient of friction betweent the block and the surface decreases with the increase in the angle of inclination.
