Initially a gas of diatomic molecules is contained in a cylinder of volume V1 at a pressure P1 and temperature 250 K. Assuming that 25% of the molecules get dissociated causing a change in number of moles. The pressure of the resulting gas at temperature 2000 K, when contained in a volume 2V1 is given by P2 . The ratio P 2 P 1 is ________.

Correct answer is (5)

We know, PV = nRT
P1V1 = nR (250)

and P2(2V1) = 5 n 4 R × ( 2000 )

By Dividing

P 1 2 P 2 = 4 × 250 5 × 2000

P 1 P 2 = 1 5

P 2 P 1 = 5

The change in the magnitude of the volume of an ideal gas when a small additional pressure Δ P is applied at a constant temperature, is the same as the change when the temperature is reduced by a small quantity Δ T at constant pressure. The initial temperature and pressure of the gas were 300 K and 2 atm. respectively.
If | Δ T| = C| Δ P| then value of C in (K/atm.) is _________.

Correct answer is (150)

We know, P V = n R T

P Δ V + V Δ P = 0 (for constant temp.)

and P Δ V = n R Δ T (for constant pressure)

Δ T = P Δ V n R

Δ P = P Δ V V ( Δ V is same in both cases)

Δ T Δ P = P Δ V n R V P Δ V = V n R = T P

[As PV = nRT

V n R = T P ]

| Δ T Δ P | = | 300 2 | = 150

One mole of ideal gas passes through a process where pressure and volume obey the relation P = P 0 [ 1 1 2 ( V 0 V ) 2 ] . Here P0 and V0 are constants. Calculate the change in the temperature of the gas if its volume changes form V0 to 2V0

(A) 3 4 P 0 V 0 R

(B) 1 2 P 0 V 0 R

(C) 5 4 P 0 V 0 R

(D) 1 4 P 0 V 0 R

Correct answer is (C)

Given P = P o { 1 1 2 ( V o V ) 2 } ; ...(i)

As n = 1 mole

PV = nRT = RT

P = R T V ....(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

R T V = P 0 [ 1 1 2 ( V 0 V ) 2 ]

T = V R × P 0 [ 1 1 2 ( V 0 V ) 2 ]

Case 1 : when V = V0

then Ti = V 0 R × P 0 [ 1 1 2 ( V 0 V 0 ) 2 ]

= V 0 P 0 2 R

Case 2 : when V = 2V0

then Tf = 2 V 0 R × P 0 [ 1 1 2 ( V 0 2 V 0 ) 2 ]

= 7 4 P 0 V 0 R

Then Δ T = Tf - Ti

= 7 4 P 0 V 0 R P 0 V 0 2 R

= P 0 V 0 R ( 7 4 1 2 )

= 5 4 P 0 V 0 R

A vertical closed cylinder is separated into two parts by a frictionless piston of mass m and of negligible thickness. The piston is free to move along the length of the cylinder. The length of the cylinder above the piston is 1, and that below the piston is 2, such that 1 > 2. Each part of the cylinder contains n moles of an ideal gas at equal temperature T. If the piston is stationary, its mass, m, will be given by :
(R is universal gas constant and g is the acceleration due to gravity)

(A) n R T g [ 1 2 1 2 ]

(B) R T g [ 2 1 + 2 1 2 ]

(C) n R T g [ 1 2 + 1 1 ]

(D) R T n g [ 1 3 2 1 2 ]

Correct answer is (A)

JEE Main 2019 (Online) 12th January Evening Slot Physics - Heat and Thermodynamics Question 249 English Explanation

P2A = P1A + mg

n R T . A A 2 = n R T . A A 1 + mg

nRT ( 1 2 1 1 ) = mg

m = n R T g ( 1 2 1 . 2 )

One mole of an ideal monoatomic gas is taken along the path ABCA as show in the PV diagram. The maximum temperature attained by the gas along the path BC is given by :

JEE Main 2018 (Online) 16th April Morning Slot Physics - Heat and Thermodynamics Question 285 English

(A) 25 16 P o V o R

(B) 25 8 P o V o R

(C) 25 4 P o V o R

(D) 5 8 P o V o R

Correct answer is (B)

Equation of line BC,

P = P0 2 P 0 V 0 ( V 2 V 0 )

As PV = nRT

T = P V n R

= P 0 V 2 P 0 V 2 V 0 + 4 P 0 V 1 × R

(As given n = 1 mole gas)

T = P 0 R [ 5 V 2 V 2 V 0 ]

For maximum value of T

d T d V = 0

5 4 V V 0 = 0

V = 5 4 V 0

Tmax = P 0 R [ 5 × 5 V 0 4 2 V 0 × 25 16 V 0 2 ]

= 25 8 × P 0 V 0 R
