Q7. Kelvin-Planck statement of Second Law of Thermodynamics states that
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

it is impossible to devise a cyclically operating device, the sole effect of which is to absorb energy in the form of heat from a single thermal reservoir and to deliver an equivalent amount of work. This implies that it is impossible to build a heat engine that has 100% thermal efficiency.

Q8. Which of the following is an example of divergent evolution?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

In divergent evolution, same structure developed along different directions due to adaptation to different needs. Homologous organs are those organs that have common origin but performing different functions.

Q9.

Critical temperature of carbon dioxide is the highest temperature at which liquid carbon dioxide is observed. Above this temperature


Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Tc is the highest Temp where a gas can exist in liquid state. Above this no liquid state exist. It is impossible to compress the gas into liquid above critical temperature, no matter what ever amount of pressure is applied.
