- An isolated system can exchange __________ with its surroundings.
- The co-efficient of performance (COP) of a refrigerating system, which is its index of performance, is defined as the ratio of useful refrigeration to the net work. The units of __________ and COP are the same.
- Domestic refrigerator usually works on the __________ refrigeration cycle.
- At absolute zero temperature, the __________ of the gas is zero.
- The melting point of paraffin wax (which contracts on solidification) __________ with pressure rise.
- The expression for entropy change given by, ΔS = nR ln (V₂/V₁) + nCv ln (T₂/T₁) is valid for
- On a P-V diagram of an ideal gas, suppose a reversible adiabatic line intersects a reversible isothermal line at point A. Then at a point A, the slope of the reversible adiabatic line (∂P/∂V)S and the slope of the reversible isothermal line (∂P/∂V)T are related as (where, y = Cp/Cv) )
- Trouton's ratio is given by (where λb, = molal heat of vaporisation of a substance at its normal boiling point, kcal/kmol Tb = normal boiling point, °K )
