3. The change in entropy of an ideal gas during reversible isothermal expansion is:
a. Negative b. positive
c. Zero d. infinity
4. The internal energy change when a system goes from state A to B is 40kJ/mole. If the
system goes from A to B by a reversible path and returns to state A by an irreversible
path what would be the net change in internal energy?
a. >40 kJ/mole b. <40kJ/mole
c. zero d. 40kJ
11. Assertion: The heat absorbed during isothermal expansion of an ideal gas against
vacuum is zero
Reason: The volume occupied by the molecules of an ideal gas is zero.
12. Assertion:∆H and ∆U are same for the reaction N2(g) + O2(g) 2NO(g)
Reason: All reactants and products are gases.
14. Assertion : As the solid changes to liquid and then to solid state and then to vapour
state , entropy increases
Reason: As the solid changes to liquid and then to solid state and then to vapour state,
disorderness increases
18. What is the the value of enthalpy change (∆H ) for the reaction:
CH4 (g) + 2O2(g) CO2(g) + 2H2O(l) .The value of change in internal energy for the
above reaction at 298K temperature is -885kJ mol-1.
19. Give reasons:
(i) Equilibrium constant (K) of a reaction is one or more if ∆rGo for it less than zero.
(ii) Dissolution of ammonium chloride in water is endothermic still it dissolves in water.
(iii) Bond energy of all the C-H bonds in CH4 are not equal.
(iv) Absolute value of internal energy cannot be determined.
(v) Many endothermic reactions which are nonspontaneous at room temperature become
spontaneous on raising the temperature.

even when 200J of heat is supplied to it?

of methane, graphite and hydrogen are 890.2kJ, 393.4 kJ and 285.7kJ mol-1 respectively.
23. Ethylene on combustion gives carbondioxide and water. Its enthalpy of combustion is
1410.0kJ/mol. If the enthalpy of formation of CO2 and H2O are 393.3kJ and 286.2kJ respectively,
calculate the enthalpy of formation of ethylene.

and Fe2O3 are -1675.7kJ and -828.4kJ mol-1 respectively.
25. Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction: H2(g) + Cl2(g) ————-> 2HCl(g). Given
that bond energies of H-H, Cl- Cl and H-Cl bonds are 433, 244 and 431 kj mol-1 respectively.
For the reaction Ag2O (s) --→ 2Ag(s) +1/2 O2(g) ∆H is 30.56kJ mol-1 and ∆S is 66JK-1mol-1 at
one atmospheric pressure. Calculate the temperature above which the reaction is spontaneous.

temperature above or below this temperature and why?
