One mole of a monoatomic gas is heated at a constant pressure of 1 atmosphere from 0 K to 100 K. If the gas constant R = 8.32J/mol K, the change in internal energy of the gas is approximately:
2.3 J
46 J
8.67 x 103 J
1.25 x 103 J
5.6 litre of helium gas at STP is adiabatically compressed to 0.7 litre. Taking the initial temperature to be T1, the work done in the process is:
A Carnot engine operating between temperatures T1 and T2 has efficiency 1/6. When T2 is lowered by 62 K, its efficiency increases to 1/3. Then T1 and T2 are, respectivley:
372 K and 310 K
372 K and 330 K
330 K and 268 K
310 K and 248 K

1 g of water at atmospheric pressure has a volume of 1 cm3 and when boiled it becomes 1681 cm3 of steam. The heat of vaporisation of water is 540 cal/g. Then the change in its internal energy in this process is :
540 cal
500 cal
1681 cal
