Question 14 Marks
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions from (i) to (v). We can say that heat is the form of energy transferred between two (or more) systems or a system and its surroundings by virtue of temperature difference. The SI unit of heat energy transferred is expressed in joule (J) while SI unit of temperature is Kelvin (K), and degree Celsius $\left({ }^{\circ} C \right)$ is a commonly used unit of temperature. When an object is heated, many changes may take place. Its temperature may rise; it may expand or change state. A measure of temperature is obtained using a thermometer. Many physical properties of materials change sufficiently with temperature. Some such properties are used as the basis for constructing thermometers. The two familiar temperature scales are the Fahrenheit temperature scale and the Celsius temperature scale. The ice and steam point have values $32^{\circ} F$ and $212^{\circ} F$, respectively, on the Fahrenheit scale and $0^{\circ} C$ and $100^{\circ} C$ on the Celsius scale. On the Fahrenheit scale, there are 180 equal intervals between two reference points, and on the Celsius scale, there are 100. A relationship for converting between the two scales may be obtained from a graph of Fahrenheit temperature ( $t _{ F }$ ) versus Celsius temperature ( $t _{ C }$ ) in a straight line. When temperature is held constant, the pressure and volume of a quantity of gas are related as PV = constant. This relationship is known as Boyle's law. When the pressure is held constant, the volume of a quantity of the gas is related to the temperature as $V / T =$ constant. This relationship is known as Charles' law. Low-density gases obey these laws, which may be combined into a single relationship. $PV =\mu RT$ where, $\mu$ is the number of moles in the sample of gas and $R$ is called universal gas constant: $R=8.31 J mol ^{-1} K^{-1}$ we have learnt that the pressure and volume are directly proportional to temperature: $PV \alpha T$. This relationship allows a gas to be used to measure temperature in a constant volume gas thermometer. The absolute minimum temperature for an ideal gas at which pressure becomes zero is found to be $-273.15^{\circ} C$ and is designated as absolute zero. Absolute zero is the foundation of the Kelvin temperature scale or absolute scale temperature. The size of unit in Kelvin and Celsius temperature scales is the same. So, temperature on these scales are related by $T=t_c+273.15$

Answer
View full question & answer→- (a) Joule (J)
- (a) Thermometer
- (a) $T = t_c + 273.15$
- Heat energy is the form of energy transferred between two or more systems or its surroundings due to temperature difference from higher temperature to lower temperature. The SI unit of heat energy transferred is expressed in joule (J).
- The absolute minimum temperature for an ideal gas at which pressure becomes zero is found to be $– 273.15^\circ C$ and is designated as absolute zero temperature. This is lowest temperature possible for ideal gas.
