The pressure of a given mass of gas changes from 200 Nm2 to 100 N m2, while its temperature drops from 127oC to - 73oC. Calculate the radio of the final volume of the gas to its initial volume.
The temperature of glass vessel containing 100cm3 of mercury is raised from 10oC to 100oC. Calculate the apparent cubic expansion of the mercury. (Real cubic expansivity of mercury = 1.82 x 10-4K-1) (Cubic expansivity of glass = 2.4 x 10-5K-1)
How much heat is required to convert 20 g of ice at 0oC to water at the same temperature? (Specific latent heat of ice = 336 J g-1)
When two objects P and Q are supplied with the same quantity of heat, the temperature change in P is observed to be twice that in Q. lf the masses of P and Q are the same, calculate the ratio of the specific heat capacities of Q to P.
