Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 1

According to the kinetic theory of gases, in an ideal gas, between two successive collisions a gas molecule travels –   

[AIEEE-2003]

Detailed Solution: Question 1

According to kinetic theory the gas molecules are in a state of constant rapid motion in all possible directions colloiding in a random manner with one another and with the walls of the container and between two successive collisions molecules travel in a straight line path but show haphazard motion due to collisions.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 2

As the temperature is raised from 20°C to 40°C, the average kinetic energy of neon atoms changes by a factor of which of the following ?

[AIEEE-2004]

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Average kinetic energy ∝ Temperature in Kelvin

(KE40) / (KE20) = (3/2 nR * 313)/(3/2 nR*293)

KE40 / KE20 = T2/T1 = 40 + 273 / 20 + 273  = 313/293

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 3

In van der Waals equation of state of the gas law, the constant `b' is a measure of -

[AIEEE-2004]

Detailed Solution: Question 3

The correct answer is Option C.

In van der Waals equation of state of the gas law, the constant b is a measure of the volume occupied by the molecules. 
 
It gives the effective size of the gas molecules. The greater value of b indicates a larger size of the molecules and smaller compressible volume.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 4

Which one of the following statements is NOT true about the effect of an increase in temperature on the distribution of molecular speeds in a gas ?  

[AIEEE-2005]

Detailed Solution: Question 4

Most probable velocity increase and fraction of molecule possessing most probable velocity decrease.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 5

Equal masses of methane and oxygen are mixed in an empty container at 25ºC. The fraction of the total pressure exerted by oxygen is – 

[AIEEE-2007]

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Let the mass of methane and oxygen be m gm.
Mole fraction of oxygen, xO2 = m/32/(m/32 +m/16) = 1/3
Let the total pressure be P.
Partial pressure of O2, pO2 = P × xO2 = P x 1/3 = P/3

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 6

The no. of moles per litre in the equation PV = nRT is expressed by -

[AIEEE-2002]

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Number of moles per litre can be represented as n/V so if we shift RT to the left side and V to the right side then we can get n/V that is our number of moles per litre is equal to p/RT and so option a is correct.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 7

The correct value of R is -

[AIEEE-2002]

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The different values of R are as follow:-
8.314 J mol-1 K-1, 8.314×107 erg mol-1 K-1, 0.0821 atm-lit mol-1 K-1 or 2 cal mol-1 K-1

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 8

If 10-4 dm3 of water is introduced into a 1.0 dm3 flask at 300 K, how many moles of water are in in the vapour phase when equilibrium is established ?             

(Given : Vapour pressure of H2O at 300 is 3170 pa; R = 8.314 JK-1 mol)

[AIEEE -2010]

Detailed Solution: Question 8

The volume occupied by water molecules in vapour phase is (1×10−4) dm3, that is approximately (1×10−3) m3.
pvapV = nH2O mol
3170 × 1 × 10−3 = nH2O × 8.314 × 300K
nH2O = 3170 × 1 × 10−3 / 8.314 × 300
= 1.27 × 10−3 mol

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 9

`a' and `b' are Vander Waals' constant for gases. Chlorine is more easily liquefied than ethane because :

[AIEEE - 2011]

Detailed Solution: Question 9

a and b are the van der Waals constant for gases where ‘a’ means the force of attraction while ‘b’ is the effective size of the molecule. Chlorine is more easily liquefied than Ethane so ‘a’  of chlorine will must be greater than a value of Ethane. Also, Chlorine is more easily liquefied then the ‘b’ of chlorine should be less than ‘b’ of Ethane. For smaller size we have more attraction and so the liquefaction will be easy.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 10

When r, P and M represent rate of diffusion, pressure and molecular mass, respectively, then the ratio of the rates of diffusion (rA/rB) of two gases A and B, is given as -

 [AIEEE - 2011]

Detailed Solution: Question 10

The correct answer is option A
Rate of diffusion: r     α    p



rA/rB = pA/pB.(MB/MA)1/2
Hence, pBpA (MB/MA)1/2 is the answer.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 11

The molecular velocity of any gas is -

[AIEEE - 2011]

Detailed Solution: Question 11

The average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. An increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy. Lighter gas molecules move faster than heavier molecules.

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 12

The compressibility factor for a real gas at high pressure is –

 [AIEEE-2012]

Detailed Solution: Question 12

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 13

For gaseous state, if most probable speed is denoted by C*, average speed by and mean square speed by C, then for a large number of molecules the ratios of these speeds are :     

[Jee(Main) 2013, 3/120]

Detailed Solution: Question 13

Test: JEE Previous Year Questions- States of Matter - Question 14

A gaseous hydrocarbon gives upon combustion 0.72 g of water and 3.08 g. of CO2. The empirical formula of the Hydrocarbon is :

[Jee(Main) 2013, 3/120]

Detailed Solution: Question 14

General equation for combustion of hydrocarbon:
CxHy + (x+ y/4)O2 → xCO2 + (y/2)H2O
Number of moles of CO2 produced = 3.08/44 = 0.07
Number of moles of H2O produced = 0.72/18 = 0.04
SO, x / (y/2) = 0.07/0.04 =  7/4
The formula of hydrocarbon is C7H8
