\(1~\text g\) of water of volume \(1~\text{cm}^3\) at \(100^\circ \text{C}\) is converted into steam at the same temperature under normal atmospheric pressure \(\approx 1\times10^{5}~\text{Pa}.\) The volume of steam formed equals \(1671~\text{cm}^3.\) If the specific latent heat of vaporization of water is \(2256~\text{J/g},\) the change in internal energy is:

| 3. | \(167~\text J\) | 4. | \(2256~\text J\) |
| 1. | isochoric | 2. | isothermal |
| 3. | adiabatic | 4. | isobaric |
The molar specific heat at a constant pressure of an ideal gas is \(\dfrac{7}{2}R.\) The ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to that at constant volume is:

If \(Q\), \(E\), and \(W\) denote respectively the heat added, the change in internal energy, and the work done in a closed cycle process, then:

The internal energy change in a system that has absorbed \(2\) kcal of heat and done \(500\) J of work is:

2. \(6400\) J
3. \(5400\) J
4. \(7900\) J
If \(\Delta U\) and \(\Delta W\) represent the increase in internal energy and work done by the system respectively in a thermodynamical process, which of the following is true?
| 1. | \(\Delta U=-\Delta W\), in an adiabatic process |
| 2. | \(\Delta U=\Delta W\) , in an isothermal process |

| 4. | \(\Delta U=-\Delta W\), in an isothermal process |
During an isothermal expansion, a confined ideal gas does \(-150\text{ J}\) of work against its surrounding. This implies that:
| 1. | \(300\text{ J}\) of heat has been added to the gas. |
| 2. | no heat is transferred because the process is isothermal. |
| 3. | \(150\text{ J}\) of heat has been added to the gas. |
| 4. | \(150\text{ J}\) of heat has been removed from the gas. |
When \(1\) kg of ice at \(0^{\circ}\) C melts into the water at \(0^{\circ}\) C, the resulting change in its entropy, taking the latent heat of ice to be \(80\) cal/gm, is:
1. \(8\times 10^4\) cal/K
2. \(80\) cal/K
3. \(293\) cal/K
4. \(273\) cal/K
