at 298 K, $\Delta $Uo = –20 kJ mol–1, $\Delta $So = –30 JK–1 mol–1,
then the $\Delta $Go will be _____ J.
Correct Answer: -13540to-13537
Explanation:
$\Delta $Go = $\Delta $Ho - T$\Delta $So
= ($\Delta $Uo + $\Delta $ngRT) - T$\Delta $So
= $\left[ {\left\{ { - 20 + \left( 1 \right){{8.314} \over {1000}} \times 298} \right\} - {{298} \over {1000}} \times \left( { - 30} \right)} \right]$ kJ
= – 13.537572 kJ
= – 13537.57 Joule
= ($\Delta $Uo + $\Delta $ngRT) - T$\Delta $So
= $\left[ {\left\{ { - 20 + \left( 1 \right){{8.314} \over {1000}} \times 298} \right\} - {{298} \over {1000}} \times \left( { - 30} \right)} \right]$ kJ

The heat of combustion of ethanol into carbon
dioxide and water is – 327 kcal at constant
pressure. The heat evolved (in cal) at constant
volume and 27oC (if all gases behave ideally) is
(R = 2 cal mol–1 K–1) ________.
Correct Answer: 326400
Explanation:
C2H5OH (l) + 3O2(g) $ \to $ 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)
$\Delta $H = –327 kcal; $\Delta $ng = – 1
$\Delta $H = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT
$ \Rightarrow $ $\Delta $U = – 327 + 2 × 10–3 × 300
= – 326.4 kcal
= – 326400 cal
$ \therefore $ Heat evolved = 326400 cal.
$\Delta $H = –327 kcal; $\Delta $ng = – 1
$\Delta $H = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT
$ \Rightarrow $ $\Delta $U = – 327 + 2 × 10–3 × 300
= – 326.4 kcal
= – 326400 cal
$ \therefore $ Heat evolved = 326400 cal.

The internal energy change (in J) When 90 g of
water undergoes complete evaporation at
100oC is ____________.
(Given : $\Delta $Hvap for water at 373 K = 41 kJ/mol,
R = 8.314 JK–1 mol–1)
(Given : $\Delta $Hvap for water at 373 K = 41 kJ/mol,
R = 8.314 JK–1 mol–1)
Correct Answer: 189494TO189495
Explanation:
H2O(l) ⇌ H2O(g)
90 gm of H2O = ${{90} \over {18}}$ moles of H2O = 5 moles of H2O
$\Delta $Hvap = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT
$ \Rightarrow $ $\Delta $U = $\Delta $Hvap - $\Delta $ngRT
= 41000 - 1$ \times $8.314$ \times $373
= 37898.878
For 5 moles, $\Delta $U = 37898.878 $ \times $ 5 = 189494.39 Joule
90 gm of H2O = ${{90} \over {18}}$ moles of H2O = 5 moles of H2O
$\Delta $Hvap = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT
$ \Rightarrow $ $\Delta $U = $\Delta $Hvap - $\Delta $ngRT
= 41000 - 1$ \times $8.314$ \times $373
= 37898.878
For 5 moles, $\Delta $U = 37898.878 $ \times $ 5 = 189494.39 Joule

At constant volume, 4 mol of an ideal gas when
heated from 300 K to 500K changes its internal
energy by 5000 J. The molar heat capacity at
constant volume is _______.
Correct Answer: 6.25
Explanation:
$\Delta $U = nCv$\Delta $T
$ \Rightarrow $ 5000 = 4 × Cv(500 – 300)
$ \Rightarrow $ Cv = 6.25 JK–1mol–1
$ \Rightarrow $ 5000 = 4 × Cv(500 – 300)
$ \Rightarrow $ Cv = 6.25 JK–1mol–1

14 Mar 2026
The magnitude of work done by a gas that undergoes a reversible expansion along the path ABC shown in
the figure is _______.
Correct Answer: 48
Explanation:
Work done = Area covered by the diagram
= $1\over2$ × (sum of parallel sides) × height
= $1\over2$ × (10+6) × 6
= $1\over2$ × 16 × 6
= 48 Joule
Note : Here pressure difference = 8 - 2 = 6 Pa and volume difference = 12 - 2 = 10
= $1\over2$ × (sum of parallel sides) × height
= $1\over2$ × (10+6) × 6
= $1\over2$ × 16 × 6
= 48 Joule
Note : Here pressure difference = 8 - 2 = 6 Pa and volume difference = 12 - 2 = 10

ethane, hydrogen and graphite are - 1560, -393.5 and -286 Kj/mol, respectively is :
Correct Answer: -192.5
Explanation:
2C(graphite)+ 3H(g) $ \to $ C2H6(g)
${\Delta _f}H$(C2H6) = 2$\Delta H$comb(Cgraphite) + 3$\Delta H$comb(H2)
- $\Delta H$comb(C2H6)
= – (286$ \times $2) - (393.5$ \times $3) -(-1560)
= -572 –1180.5+1560 = -192.5 kJ/mole
${\Delta _f}H$(C2H6) = 2$\Delta H$comb(Cgraphite) + 3$\Delta H$comb(H2)
- $\Delta H$comb(C2H6)
= – (286$ \times $2) - (393.5$ \times $3) -(-1560)

For the reaction :
A($l$) $ \to $ 2B(g)
$\Delta U = 2.1\,kcal,\,\Delta S = 20\,cal\,{K^{ - 1}}$ at 300 K
Hence $\Delta $G in kcal is :
A($l$) $ \to $ 2B(g)
$\Delta U = 2.1\,kcal,\,\Delta S = 20\,cal\,{K^{ - 1}}$ at 300 K
Hence $\Delta $G in kcal is :
Correct Answer: -2.7
Explanation:
A($l$) $ \to $ 2B(g)
We know, $\Delta $H = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT
and $\Delta $G = $\Delta $H - T$\Delta $S
$ \therefore $ $\Delta $G = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT - T$\Delta $S
= 2.1 + ${{2 \times 2 \times 300} \over {1000}}$ - ${{300 \times 20} \over {1000}}$
= 2.1 + 1.2 - 6 = – 2.70 Kcal/mol
We know, $\Delta $H = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT
and $\Delta $G = $\Delta $H - T$\Delta $S
$ \therefore $ $\Delta $G = $\Delta $U + $\Delta $ngRT - T$\Delta $S
= 2.1 + ${{2 \times 2 \times 300} \over {1000}}$ - ${{300 \times 20} \over {1000}}$
= 2.1 + 1.2 - 6 = – 2.70 Kcal/mol
