A perfect gas goes from state $A$ to another state $B$ by absorbing $8 \times {10^5}J$ of heat and doing $6.5 \times {10^5}J$ of external work. It is now transferred between the same two states in another process in which it absorbs ${10^5}J$ of heat. Then in the second process

(a) In first process using $\Delta Q = \Delta U + \Delta W$
==> $8 \times {10^5} = \Delta U + 6.5 \times {10^5}$==> $\Delta U = 1.5 \times 10J$
Since final and initial states are same in both process
So $\Delta U$ will be same in both process
For second process using $\Delta Q = \Delta U + \Delta W$
==> ${10^5} = 1.5 \times {10^5} + \Delta W$==>$\Delta W = - 0.5 \times {10^5}J$

The figure shows a process $AB$ undergone by $2$ moles of an ideal diatomic gas. The process $AB$ is in such a way that $VT =$ constant. $T_1 = 300 K $and $T_2 = 500 K$ ( $R = $ gas constant)
One mole of an ideal gas at an initial temperature of $T\, K$ does $6\, R\, joules$ of work adiabatically. If the ratio of specific heats of this gas at constant pressure and at constant volume is $\frac{5}{3}$ , the final temperature of gas will be
A closed vessel contains $0.1$ mole of a monoatomic ideal gas at $200\, K$. If $0.05$ mole of the same gas at $400\, K$ is added to it, the final equilibrium temperature (in $K$ ) of the gas in the vessel will be closed to
$1c{m^3}$ of water at its boiling point absorbs $540$ calories of heat to become steam with a volume of $1671c{m^3}$.If the atmospheric pressure = $1.013 \times {10^5}N/{m^2}$ and the mechanical equivalent of heat = $4.19J/calorie$, the energy spent in this process in overcoming intermolecular forces is ..... $cal$
One mole of an ideal gas expands adiabatically from an initial state $\left(T_A, V_0\right)$ to final state $\left(T_f, 5 V_0\right)$. Another mole of the same gas expands isothermally from a different initial state ( $T_{\mathrm{B}}, \mathrm{V}_0$ ) to the same final state $\left(T_{\mathrm{f}}, 5 V_0\right)$. The ratio of the specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume of this ideal gas is $\gamma$. What is the ratio $T_{\mathrm{A}} / T_{\mathrm{B}}$ ?
A thermodynamic system is taken form an initial state $i$ with internal energy $U_1=100 \ J$ to the final state along two different paths iaf and ibf, as schematically shown in the fire. The work done by the system along the paths $af$, ib and bf are $W _{ af }=200 \ J , W _{ ID }=50 \ J$ and $W _{ br }=100 \ J$ respectively. The heat supplied to the system along the path iaf, ib and bf are $Q_{\mid a t l} Q_{b r}$ and $Q_{10}$ respectively. If the internal energy of the sytem in the state $b$ is $U_b=$ $200 \ J$ and $Q_{l a t}=500 \ J$, the ratio $Q_{b J} / Q_{10}$ is:
$5.6$ $liter$ of helium gas at $STP$ is adiabatically compressed to $0.7$ $liter$. Taking the initial temperature to be $T_1$, the work done in the process is
