Assertion : Coefficient of performance in refrigrator may be greater than one. Reason : Heat extracted from lower temperature reservoir.

Assertion : Heat added to a system at lower temperature causes greater randomness than when the same quantity of heat is added to it at higher temperature. Reason : Entropy is a measure of the degree of randomness or disorder in the system.

The amount of moisture that leather adsorbs or loses is determined by temperature, relative humidity, degree of porosity, and the size of the pores. Moisture has great practical significance because its amount affects the durability of leather, and in articles such as shoes, gloves, and other garments, the comfort of the wearer. High moisture content accelerates deterioration and promotes mildew action. On the other hand, a minimum amount of moisture is required to keep leather properly lubricated and thus prevent cracking. The study indicates that adsorption of moisture by leather is a multi-molecular process and is accompanied by low enthalpies of adsorption. Further 75-percent relative humidity the adsorption is a function of surface area alone. Untanned hide and chrome-tanned leathers have the largest surface areas. The leathers tanned with the vegetable tanning materials have smaller surface areas since they are composed of less hide substance and the capillaries are reduced to smaller diameters, in some cases probably completely filled by tanning materials. This process of tanning occurs due to mutual coagulation of positively charged hide with negatively charged tanning material. The result of the study indicated that untanned hide and chrome-tanned leather adsorb the most water vapour. Assertion: The vegetable tanning materials have smaller surface areas Reason: The capillaries present in leather are reduced to smaller diameters

Reason: Porous materials have higher surface area.
