(a) △S system + △S surroundings > 0
(b) △S system – △S surroundings < 0
(c) △S system > 0

Q.6. The enthalpy change in a reaction does not depend upon
(a) The state of reactions and products
(b) The nature of the reactants and products
(c) Different intermediate steps in the reaction
(d) Initial and final enthalpy of the reaction

Correct Answer is option (c)
The enthalpy change is a state function so it doesn’t depend on different intermediate steps in the reaction.

Q.7. The correct relationship between free energy change in a reaction and the corresponding equilibrium constant KC is
(a) -△G = RT lnK_C
(b) △G⁰ = RT lnK_C
(c) -△G⁰ = RT lnK_C
(d) △G = RT lnK_C

Correct Answer is option (c)
The relationship between free energy change in a reaction and the corresponding equilibrium constant K_C is △G⁰ = – RT lnK_C or -△G⁰ = RT lnK_C

Q.8. What is the entropy change (in JK^-1 mol^-1) when 1 mole of ice is converted into water at 0℃? (The enthalpy change for the conversion of ice to liquid water is 6.0 kJ mol-1 at 0℃)
(a) 20.13
(b) 2.013
(c) 2.198
(d) 21.98

Correct Answer is option (d)
The entropy change; ds = dq_rev /T ⇒ ds = 6000J mol^-1 / 273K
⇒ ds = 21.978JK^-1 mol^-1

(a) Explosive
(b) Endothermic
(c) Exothermic
(d) Photochemical

Correct Answer is option (c)
When water is added to quick lime the reaction is exothermic
CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂ △H = -ve

Q.11. A solution of 200 ml of 1 M KOH is added to 200 ml of 1 M HCl and the mixture is well shaken. The rise in temperature T₁ is noted. The experiment is repeated by using 100 ml of each solution and increase in temperature T₂ is again noted. Which of the following is correct?
(a) T₁ = T₂
(b) T₂ is twice as large as T₁
(c) T₁ is twice as large as T₂
(d) T₁ is four times as large T₂

Correct Answer is option (a)
|ΔH| = msΔT

⇒ T₁ = T₂

Q.12. ΔH⁰_f of CO₂(g), CO(g), N₂O(g) and NO₂(g) in kJ/mol are respectively –393, –110, 81 and 34. Calculate the ΔH in kJ of the following reaction:
2NO₂(g) + 3CO(g) → N₂O(g) + 3CO₂(g)
(a) 836
(b) 1460
(c) – 836
(d) –1460

Correct Answer is option (c)
ΔH = 81 + 3 (-393) -2 (34) -3 (-110) = 81 - 1179 - 68 + 330 = – 836 kJ.

Q.13. Heat of combustion of CH₄, C₂H₆, C₂H₄ and C₂H₂ are – 212.8, –373.0, –337.0 and –310.5 kcal mol^-1 respectively at the same temperature. The best fuel among these gases is (Atomic masses: H = 1, C = 12)
(a) CH₄
(b) C₂H₆
(c) C₂H₄
(d) C₂H₂

Correct Answer is option (a)
Heat of combustion per g is called fuel value. The best fuel is that substance which has a maximum heat of combustion per g.

Q.14. Under same conditions how many ml of 1M NaOH and M/2 H₂SO₄ solutions should be mixed so that the total volume of the solution is 100 ml and rise in temperature is highest
(a) 67, 33
(b) 33, 67
(c) 60, 40
(d) 50, 50

Correct Answer is option (d)
If 50 ml. of 1(M) NaOH and 50 ml. of M/2 H₂SO₄ is taken, complete neutralization of acid and base occurs, maximum heat will be released.

Q.15. One mole of an ideal gas at 300 K is expanded isothermally from an initial volume of one litre to 10 litres. The ΔE for this process is (E stands for internal energy)
(a) 16.7 cal
(b) 1381.1 cal
(c) 9 lit atm
(d) Zero

Correct Answer is option (d)
If the gas is ideal, its expansion at constant temperature is called isothermal expansion and it will be accompanied by no change in internal energy. Thus, ΔE = 0.
