Thermodynamics is not concerned about:
| 1. | Energy changes involved in a chemical reaction. |
| 2. | The extent to which a chemical reaction proceeds. |
| 3. | The rate at which a reaction proceeds. |
| 4. | The feasibility of a chemical reaction. |
Thermodynamics primarily focuses on:
| (a) | Interrelation of various forms of energy and their transformation from one form to another. |
| (b) | Energy changes in the processes depend only on the initial and final states of the microscopic systems containing a few molecules. |
| (c) |
The mechanisms and rates at which energy transformations occur. |
| (d) |
Whether a system is in an equilibrium state or transitioning between one equilibrium state and another. |
The correct statements, among the above, are:
1. (a) and (b)
2. (b) and (c)
3. (c) and (d)
4. (a) and (d)
The correct statement among the following is:
| 1. | The presence of reacting species in a covered beaker is an example of an open system. |
| 2. | There is an exchange of energy as well as matter between the system and the surroundings in a closed system. |
| 3. | The presence of reactants in a closed vessel made up of copper is an example of a closed system. |
| 4. | The presence of reactants in a thermos flask or any other closed insulated vessel is an example of a closed system. |
A system that can neither exchange matter nor energy with the surroundings is classified as:
1. Open system
2. Isolated system
3. Closed system
4. Both (1) & (2)
| Assertion (A): | Variables like P, V, and T are called state functions. |
| Reason (R): |
Their values depend solely on the system's state, and not on how it is reached. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |

| a. | No heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings, but work (w) is done on the system. | i. | ∆U = q – w, closed system. |
