When 1 mol gas is heated at constant volume, the temperature is raised from 298 to 308 K. Heat supplied to the gas is 500 J. The correct statement among the following is:

1.  q = w = 500 J, ∆U = 0
2.  q = ∆U = 500 J, w = 0
3.  q =0, w = 500 J, ∆U = 0
4.  ∆U = 0, q = w = – 500 J

1. 11.08×108 Pa

2. 9.92×107 Pa

3. 9.92×106 Pa

The formation of a solution from two components can be considered as:

(i) Pure solvent → separated solvent molecules, ∆H1
(ii) Pure solute → separated solute molecules, ∆H2
(iii) Separated solvent and solute molecules → solution, ∆H3


The solution so formed will be ideal if:

1. ∆HSoln = ∆H1 + ∆H2 + ∆H3

2. ∆HSoln = ∆H1 + ∆H2 – ∆H3

3. ∆HSoln = ∆H1 – ∆H2 – ∆H3

4. ∆HSoln = ∆H3 – ∆H1 – ∆H2
