A gaseous mixture was prepared by taking equal moles of $$CO$$ and $${N_2}.$$ If the total pressure of the mixture was found $$1\,atom,$$ the partial pressure of the nitrogen $$\left( {{N_2}} \right)$$ in the mixture is
A
$$0.8\,atm$$
B
$$0.9\,atm$$
C
$$1\,atm$$
D
$$0.5\,atm$$
Answer :
$$0.5\,atm$$
Equal moles of $$CO$$ and $${{N_2}}$$
$${n_{CO}} = {n_{{N_2}}}$$
then, according to ideal gas equation, pressure of both gases $$CO$$ and $${N_2}$$ becomes equal
$$\therefore \,\,{p_{CO}} = {p_{{N_2}}}$$
Given, $${p_{CO}} + {p_{{N_2}}} = $$ Total pressure of mixture.
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{or}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,2{p_{{N_2}}} = 1\,atm \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{p_{{N_2}}} = 0.5\,atm \cr} $$

When the temperature is increased, surface tension of water
A
increases
B
decreases
C
remains constant
D
shows irregular behaviour
Answer :
decreases
Upon increase of temperature the internal energy of water or any system increases resulting in decrease in intermolecular force and hence decrease in surface tension. Surface tension decreases with increase in mobility due to increase in temperature.

At $$STP,$$ a container has $$1$$ $$mole$$ of $$He,$$ $$2$$ $$mole$$ $$Ne,$$ $$3\,mole\,{O_2}$$ and $$4\,mole\,{N_2}.$$ without changing total pressure if $$2$$ $$mole$$ of $${O_2}$$ is removed. The partial pressure of $${O_2}$$ will be decreased by :

The compressibility factor for $${N_2}$$ at $$223\,K$$ and $$81.06\,MPa$$ is $$1.95,$$ and at $$373\,K$$ and $$20.265\,MPa,$$ it is $$1.10.$$ A certain mass of $${N_2}$$ occupies a volume of $$1.0\,d{m^3}$$ at $$223\,K$$ and $$81.06\,MPa.$$ What is the volume occupied by the same quantity of $${N_2}$$ at $$373\,K$$ and $$20.265\,MPa?$$

At any particular time, different particles in the gas
A
have same speed and kinetic energy
B
have same speed but different kinetic energies
C
have different speeds but same kinetic energy
D
have different speeds and hence different kinetic energies.
Answer :
have different speeds and hence different kinetic energies.
Different particles of a gas have different speeds due to constant collisions and different kinetic energies.
146.
Which of the following assumption of kinetic molecular theory states that gases do not have fixed shape ?
A
Particles of a gas move in all possible directions in straight line.
B
Particles of a gas are always in constant and random motion.
C
Total energy of molecules before and after the collision remains same.
D
None of these
Answer :
Particles of a gas are always in constant and random motion.
Particles of a gas are always in constant and random motion. If the particles were at rest and occupy fixed positions, then a gas would have a fixed shape which is not observed.

On a ship sailing in pacific ocean where temperature is $${23.4^ \circ }C,$$ a balloon is filled with $$2\,L$$ air. What will be the volume of the balloon when
the ship reaches Indian ocean, where temperature is $${26.1^ \circ }C?$$

Lithium metal crystallises in a body centred cubic $$(bcc)$$ crystal. If the length of the side of the unit cell of lithium is $$351\,pm$$ the atomic radius of the lithium will be
A
240.8$$\,pm$$
B
151.8$$\,pm$$
C
75.5$$\,pm$$
D
300.5$$\,pm$$
Answer :
151.8$$\,pm$$
In case of body centred cubic $$(bcc)$$ crystal,
$$a\sqrt 3 = 4r$$
Given, edge length, $$a = 351\,pm$$
Hence, atomic radius of lithium,
$$\eqalign{
& r = \frac{{a\sqrt 3 }}{4} \cr
& \,\,\,\, = \frac{{351 \times 1.732}}{4} \cr
& \,\,\,\, = 151.98\,pm \cr} $$
