102.
The specific heat of $$Ar$$ at constant volume is $$0.075\,k{g^{ - 1}}{K^{ - 1}}.$$ Calculate the atomic weight $$\left( {R = 2\,cal\,mo{l^{ - 1}}{K^{ - 1}}} \right)$$
104.
The density of a gas is $$6 \times {10^{ - 2}}\,kg/{m^3}$$ and the root mean square velocity of the gas molecules is $$500\,m/s.$$ The pressure exerted by the gas on the walls of the vessel is
105.
Relation between pressure $$\left( p \right)$$ and energy $$\left( E \right)$$ of a gas is
A
$$p = \frac{2}{3}E$$
B
$$p = \frac{1}{3}E$$
C
$$p = \frac{3}{2}E$$
D
$$p = 3E$$
Answer :
$$p = \frac{2}{3}E$$
Pressure exerted by gas molecules is
$$p = \frac{1}{3}\rho {{\bar v}^2}\,......\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
where, $$\rho $$ = density of gas
$${\bar v}$$ = average velocity of gas molecules
or $$p = \frac{2}{3}n \cdot \frac{1}{2}m{{\bar v}^2}\,\,\left( {\because \rho = mn} \right)$$
Now, $$\frac{1}{2}m{{\bar v}^2}$$ = average kinetic energy of a gas molecule $$\left( {\overline {KE} } \right)$$
Therefore, $$p = \frac{2}{3}n\,\overline {KE} $$
If $$N$$ is total number of gas molecules in volume $$V,$$ then
No of gas molecules per unit volume
$$\eqalign{
& n = \frac{N}{V} \cr
& \therefore p = \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{N}{V}\left( {\frac{1}{2}m{{\bar v}^2}} \right) \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,pV = \frac{2}{3}N\left( {\overline {KE} } \right)\,\,\left[ {KE = \frac{1}{2}m{{\bar v}^2}} \right] \cr} $$
Also, from Eq. (i),
$$p = \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{2}\rho {{\bar v}^2}$$
Now, $$\frac{1}{2}\rho {{\bar v}^2}$$ = average kinetic energy of the gas per unit volume. Therefore, $$p = \frac{2}{3}E$$

Two different masses $$m$$ and $$3\,m$$ of an ideal gas are heated separately in a vessel of constant volume, the pressure $$P$$ and absolute temperature $$T,$$ graphs for these two cases are shown in the figure as $$A$$ and $$B.$$ The ratio of slopes of curves $$B$$ to $$A$$ is

rate of change of momentum imparted to the walls per second per unit area.
B
momentum imparted to the walls per unit area
C
change of momentum imparted to the walls per unit volume.
D
change in momentum per unit volume
Answer :
rate of change of momentum imparted to the walls per second per unit area.
$$P$$ = rate of change of momentum per unit area.

An air bubble of volume $${v_0}$$ is released by a fish at a depth $$h$$ in a lake. The bubble rises to the surface. Assume constant temperature an standard atmospheric pressure above the lake. The volume of the bubble just before touching the surface will be (density of water is $$\rho $$)
A
$${v_0}$$
B
$${v_0}\left( {\frac{{\rho gh}}{p}} \right)$$
C
$$\frac{{{v_0}}}{{\left( {1 + \frac{{\rho gh}}{p}} \right)}}$$
D
$${v_0}\left( {1 + \frac{{\rho gh}}{p}} \right)$$
As the bubble rises the pressure gets reduced for constant temperature, if $$P$$ is the standard atmospheric pressure, then
$$\eqalign{
& \left( {P + \rho gh} \right){V_0} = PV \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,V = {V_0}\left( {1 + \frac{{\rho gh}}{P}} \right) \cr} $$

A mixture of ideal gases $${N_2}$$ and $$He$$ are taken in the mass ratio of $$14: 1$$ respectively. Molar heat capacity of the mixture at constant pressure is
110.
An ideal gas is expanding such that $$P{T^2}$$ = constant. The co-efficient of volume expansion of the gas is —
A
$$\frac{1}{T}$$
B
$$\frac{2}{T}$$
C
$$\frac{3}{T}$$
D
$$\frac{4}{T}$$
Answer :
$$\frac{3}{T}$$
$$P{T^2} = {\text{constant }}\left( {{\text{given}}} \right)$$
Also for an ideal gas $$\frac{{PV}}{T} = {\text{constant}}$$
From the above two equations, after eliminating $$P.$$
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{V}{{{T^3}}} = {\text{constant}} \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,V = k{T^3}\,\,{\text{where }}k = {\text{co}}{\text{nstant}} \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,\frac{{dV}}{V} = 3\frac{{dT}}{T} \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,dV = \left( {\frac{3}{T}} \right)VdT\,\,\,\,.....\left( {\text{i}} \right) \cr} $$
We know that change in volume due to thermal expansion is given by $$dV = V\,\gamma\, dT\,\,\,\,.....\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
where $$\gamma $$ = co-efficient of volume expansion.
From (i) and (ii)
$$\eqalign{
& V\,\gamma \,dT = \left( {\frac{3}{T}} \right)VdT \cr
& \Rightarrow \,\,\gamma = \frac{3}{T} \cr} $$
