An ideal gas obeying kinetic gas equation :
  • can be liquefied if its temperature is more than critical temperature
  • B
    can be liquefied at any value of any value $T$ and $P$
  • C
    can not be liquefied under any value of $T$ and $P$
  • D
    can not be liquefied under any value of $T$ and $P$
Answer
Correct option: A.
can be liquefied if its temperature is more than critical temperature
An ideal gas is meant to have no intermolecular force of attraction
That's why a real gas has to reach, lowest pressure and highest temperature enough to overcome the intermolecular force of attraction and behave like an ideal gas.
So ideal gas can't be liquefied at any $T$ and $P.$

Which of the following exists as a liquid at room temperature due to the formation of associated molecules only?
  • Benzene
  • B
    Ammonia
  • C
    Bromine
  • D
    Bromine
Answer

Benzene
Benzene is a non $-$ polar aromatic molecule. Benzene has a melting point of $5.5^\circ C$ and a boiling point of $80^\circ C$. It is therefore liquid at room temperature.
$\ce{NH_3}$​ liquid boils at $ −33.3^\circ C$ and freezes at $−77.3^\circ C$ to white crystals. So at room temperature is gas.
Bromine evaporates readily to form coloured gas at room temperature.

  • D
    When magnesium burns in oxygen, the amount of magnesium taken for the reaction is equal to the amount of magnesium in magnesium oxide formed.
Answer
Correct option: B.
Carbon forms two oxides namely $\ce{CO_2}$ and $CO$, where masses of oxygen which combine with fixed mass of carbon are in the simple ratio $2 : 1.$
The element, carbon, combines with oxygen to form two compounds, namely, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. In $CO_2, 12$ parts by mass of carbon combine with $32$ parts by mass of oxygen while in $CO, 12$ parts by mass of carbon combine with $16$ parts by mass of oxygen.
Therefore, the masses of oxygen combine with a fixed mass of carbon $(12$ parts$)$ in $\ce{CO_2}$ and $CO$ are $32$ and $16$ respectively. These masses of oxygen bear a simple ratio of $32 : 16$ or $2 : 1$ to each other.

  • A
    Low pressure.
  • High pressure.
  • C
    High temperature.
  • D
    Low temperature.
Answer
Correct option: B.
High pressure.
A gas which obeys the ideal gas equation, $\text{pV = nRT}$ under all conditions of temperature and pressure is called an ‘ideal gas’.
However, there is no gas which obeys the ideal gas equation under all conditions of temperature and pressure. Hence, the concept of ideal gas is only theoretical or hypothetical. The gases are found to obey the gas laws fairly well when the pressure is low or the temperature is high.
Such gases are, therefore, known as ‘real gases’. All gases are real gases. Hence, at high pressure and low temperature, a real gas deviates most from ideal behavior.

  • A
    pascal.
  • $Nsm^{-2}$.
  • C
    $km^{-2}s.$
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: B.
$Nsm^{-2}$.
The $\text{SI}$ unit of velocity coefficient $(\eta)$ is $N m^{-2} s$ or $ N m^{-2}$
As we know that, $\text{f}=\eta\text{A}\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}$
Where, $f =$ force
$(\eta) =$ viscosity coefficient.
$\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dx}}=$ velocity gradient.
Substitute $\text{SI}$ units of $f = N, dx = m, A = m^2$ and $v = m s^{-1}$ in above equation,
We get,
$\eta=\frac{\text{N}\times\text{m}}{\text{m}^2\times\text{m s}^{-1}}=\text{N m}^{-2}\text{s}$
Hence, the $\text{SI}$ unit of $\eta =$ is $N s m^{-2}$.

The interaction energy of London force is inversely proportional to sixth power of the distance between two interacting particles but their magnitude depends upon :
  • A
    Charge of interacting particles.
  • B
    Mass of interacting particles.
  • Polarisability of interacting particles.
  • D

Answer
Correct option: C.
Polarisability of interacting particles.
London dispersion forces operate only over very short distance. The energy of interaction varies as
$1\ ($distance between two interacting particles$)^6$ Large or more complex are the molecules, greater is the magnitude of London forces. This is obviously due to the fact that the large electron clouds are easily distorted or polarised.
Hence, greater the polarisability of the interacting particles, greater is the magnitude of the interaction energy.

An ideal gas is compressed in a closed container its $U\ ?$
  • Increases
  • B
    Decreases
  • C
    Remains same
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: A.
Increases
When an ideal gas is compressed in a closed container, its internal energy $\text{U}$ increases.
Compressing an ideal gas increases its temperature and its internal energy increases since $\text{U = f(t)}$ for an ideal gas.

The vapour pressure of $o-$nitrophenol at any given temperature is predicted to be:
  • Higher than that of $p-$nitrophenol
  • B
    Lower than that of $p-$nitrophenol
  • C
    Same as that of $p-$nitrophenol
  • D
    Same as that of $p-$nitrophenol
Answer
Correct option: A.
Higher than that of $p-$nitrophenol
In $o-$ nitrophenol , there is intra$-$molecular as as well as inter$-$molecular hydrogen bonding while in $p-$nitrophenol there is only inter$-$molecular hydrogen bonding. Therefore, it is difficult to vaporize $o-$nitrophenol than $p-$nitrophenol . Hence the vapour pressure of $o-$nitrophenol is higher than that of $p-$nitrophenol.

Ideal gas equation is also called equation of states because :
  • A
    it depends on states of matter
  • it is relation between four variables and describes the state of any gas
  • C
    it is combination of various gas laws and any variable can be calculated
  • D
    it is combination of various gas laws and any variable can be calculated
Answer
Correct option: B.
it is relation between four variables and describes the state of any gas
Assuming an equilibrium state, the three properties needed to completely define the state of a system are pressure $(P),$ volume $(V),$ and temperature $(T).$ Hence, the definition: An Equation of State $\text{(EOS)}$ is a semi $-$ empirical functional relationship between pressure, volume and temperature of a pure substance. Ideal gas equation is also called equation of states because it is relation between four variables and describes the state of any gas.

According to Avogadro's law the volume of a gas will $ ........ $ as $ ....... $ if $ ......... $ are held constant :
  • increases, number of moles; $P$ and $T$
  • B
    decreases, number of moles; $P$ and $T$
  • C
    increases; $T$ and $P$; number of moles
  • D
    increases; $T$ and $P$; number of moles
Answer
Correct option: A.
increases, number of moles; $P$ and $T$
According to Avogadro's law : Equal volume of all gases at same temperature and pressure will have same no. of molecules.
OR
For a given mass of ideal gas, Volume $\alpha$ Number of moles of the gas $($if temperature and pressure are constant$).$
So, volume of the gas will increase as the number of moles if pressure $(P)$ and temperature $(T)$ are held constant.

  • B
    Vapour pressure of beaker $B$ is highest
  • C
    Vapour pressure of beaker $A$ is highest
  • Vapour pressure of beaker $C$ is highest
Answer
Correct option: D.
Vapour pressure of beaker $C$ is highest
Liquid solution is formed when we dissolve a solid, liquid or gas in a particular liquid solvent. Vapour pressure of liquid solutions is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapours on the liquid solvent when kept in equilibrium and a certain temperature.

Which of the following property of water can be used to explain the spherical shape of rain droplets?
  • A
    Viscosity.
  • Surface tension.
  • C
    Critical phenomena.
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: B.
Surface tension.
Due to surface tension, the surface of the water drops is under tension and tends to take spherical shape to reduce the tension.
