C
Triple point
c Triple point of a substance can be defined as the temperature and pressure at which the three phases (gas, liquid, and solid) of that substance coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium. For eg. triple point of pure water occurs at temperature of $273.16 \; K$ and pressure of $611.2 \; Pa$.
Thus option $(C)$ is correct.

Consider a $1\, c.c.$ sample of air at absolute temperature ${T_0}$ at sea level and another $1 cc$ sample of air at a height where the pressure is one-third atmosphere. The absolute temperature $T$ of the sample at that height is
A mixture of ideal gases has $2$ moles of He, $4$ moles of oxygen and $1$ mole of ozone at absolute temperature $T$. The internal energy of mixture is ............. $RT$
The gas in vessel is subjected to a pressure of $20$ atmosphere at a temperature $27°C.$ The pressure of the gas in a vessel after one half of the gas is released from the vessel and the temperature of the remainder is raised by $50°C$ is ....... $atm$
A container $X$ has volume double that of contianer $Y$ and both are connected by a thin tube. Both contains same ideal gas. The temperature of $X$ is $200\,\,K$ and that of $Y$ is $400\,\,K$. If mass of gas in $X$ is $m$ then in $Y$ it will be:
An ideal gas filled in a cylinder occupies volume $V$. The gas is compressed isothermally to the volume $V/3$. Now, the cylinder valve is opened and the gas is allowed to leak keeping temperature same. What percentage of the number of molecules should escape to bring the pressure in the cylinder back to its original value?
Consider a mixture of $n$ moles of helium gas and $2 n$ moles of oxygen gas (molecules taken to be rigid) as an ideal gas. Its $\frac{\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{P}}}{\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{V}}}$ value will be
