According to kinetic theory of gases, the absolute zero temperature is attained when
A. Volume of the gas is zero
B. Pressure of the gas is zero
C. Kinetic energy of the molecules is zero
D. Specific heat of gas is zero
Answer: Option C
A. Volume of the gas is zero
B. Pressure of the gas is zero
C. Kinetic energy of the molecules is zero
D. Specific heat of gas is zero
Answer: Option C
Addition of heat at constant pressure to a gas results in
A. Raising its temperature
B. Raising its pressure
C. Raising its volume
D. Raising its temperature and doing external work
Which of the following items is not a path function?
A. Heat
B. Work
C. Kinetic energy
D. Thermal conductivity
An actual engine is to be designed having same efficiency as the Carnot cycle. Such a proposition is
A. Feasible
B. Impossible
C. Possible
D. Possible, but with lot of sophistications
The absolute zero pressure can be attained at a temperature of
A. 0°C
B. -273°C
C. 273 K
D. None of these
At absolute zero (0 K), the molecules have no motion, i.e., kinetic energy is zero.
Volume or pressure may approach zero in ideal gas extrapolations, but the fundamental definition comes from kinetic energy.
i think the answer is A. Can someone please review the answer?
