MCQ
When water is heated from $0$ to $4\,^oC$
  • A
    ${C_p}\, = \,{C_v}$
  • B
    ${C_p}\, > \,{C_v}$
  • ${C_p}\, < \,{C_v}$
  • D
    ${C_p}\, - \,{C_v}=R$

Answer

Correct option: C.
${C_p}\, < \,{C_v}$
c
Water has highest density at $4^{\circ} C$. This changes its properties from other simple fluids.

When water is heated from $0^{\circ} C$ to $4^{\circ} C$, the volume of liquid decreases.

Thus for this transition, $P \Delta V$ is negative.

$\int C_p d T=\int C_V d T+P \Delta V$

$\Rightarrow C_P < C_V$

A bubble has surface tension $S$. The ideal gas inside the bubble has ratio of specific heats $\gamma=\frac{5}{3}$. The bubble is exposed to the atmosphere and it always retains its spherical shape. When the atmospheric pressure is $P_{a 1}$, the radius of the bubble is found to be $r_1$ and the temperature of the enclosed gas is $T_1$. When the atmospheric pressure is $P_{a 2}$, the radius of the bubble and the temperature of the enclosed gas are $r_2$ and $T_2$, respectively.

Which of the following statement($s$) is(are) correct?

$(A)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator, then $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^5=\frac{P_{a 2}+\frac{2 S}{r_2}}{P_{a 1}+\frac{2 S}{r_1}}$

$(B)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator, then the total internal energy of the bubble including its surface energy does not change with the external atmospheric pressure.

$(C)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat conductor and the change in atmospheric temperature is negligible, then $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^3=\frac{P_{a 2}+\frac{4 S}{r_2}}{P_{a 1}+\frac{4 S}{r_1}}$.

$(D)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator, then $\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^{\frac{5}{2}}=\frac{P_{a 2}+\frac{4 S}{r_2}}{P_{a 1}+\frac{4 S}{r_1}}$.
