Q1.Two cylinders A and B of equal capacity are connected to each other via a stopcock. A contains a gas at standard temperature and pressure. B is completely evacuated. The entire system is thermally insulated. The stopcock is suddenly opened. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
Internal energy depends on temperature and temperature remains constant because system is thermally insulated. so that change in internal energy will be zero.
Q2.Which one of the following experiments suggests that simplest living organisms could not have originated spontaneously from non-living matter
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
Simplest organisms could not have originated spontaneously from non-living matter. This can be shown as meat was not spoiled when heated and kept sealed in vessels.
The ionization constant of an acid, Ka, is the measure of strength of an acid. The Ka values of acetic acid, hypochlorous acid and formic acid are 1.74 × 10−5, 3.0× 10−8and 1.8 × 10−4 respectively. Which of the following orders of pH of 0.1 mol dm-3 solutions of these acids is correct?
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution: pH=-log(cα) , Ka=cα2 . Lesser is the pH value greater is acidity. Also greater is Ka, lesser will be acidity.
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
Reticulate venation: In this type, the veins branch and unite forming a complicated network, All the veins are interconnected, like the strands of the net. Leaves of ‘Dicot plants’ generally have reticulate venation e.g., Hibiscus, Redgram
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
Genus comprises a group of related species, Family has a group of related genera, order has a group of related family. Hence, the correct option is Phylum.
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
