    • Which of the following is true for absolute zero?

      • A: Molecules are at random motion at this temperature.

      • B: Volume of gases are maximum at this temperature.

      • C: Molecular motion of gas ceases at this temperature.

      • D: All three states of matter can exist at this temperature.

    • The boiling point of water is:

      • A: 100K

      • B: 200K

      • C: 273K

      • D: 373K

    • Which of the following statement is correct?

      P: At constant pressure, the volume of the fixed mass of dry gas is directly proportional to temperature.

      Q: At constant pressure, the volume of the fixed mass of dry gas is directly proportional to absolute temperature.

      • A: Only P

      • B: Only Q

      • C: Both P & Q

      • D: Neither P nor Q

    • Assertion (A): When stating the volume of a gas, the pressure and temperature should also be given.

      Reason (R): Volume of a gas depends on the temperature & pressure of the gas.

      • A: Both A & R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

      • B: Both A & R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

      • C: A is true but R is false.

      • D: A is false but R is true.

  • Ques.2. Fill in the blanks with the words/ phrases given in the bracket: [5]

    • The volume of the gas is ____________, when the Kelvin temperature is doubled at constant pressure. (doubled/ halved)

    • The graph of PV vs P for a gas is _____________. (a straight line parallel to X- axis/ a straight line passing through the origin)

    • Volume-temperature relationship of gases is given by ____________. (Boyle’s law/ Charles ‘law)

    • The standard temperature is ___________ . (0C/ 0K)

    • At constant temperature, the volume of the gas ____________ with increase of pressure. (increases/ decreases)

  • Ques. 3. State if the following statements are true or false. Justify your answer. [5]

    • Negative temperatures are not possible on the Kelvin scale.

    • Inflating a balloon violates Boyle’s law.

    • It is not possible to keep the volume of a fixed mass of dry gas same by changing the temperature & pressure.

    • When the temperature of a gas is increased, the pressure of the gas also increases if the volume remains the same.

    • No gas can exist at absolute temperature.

  • Ques 4.

    • 270 L of a gas at 27C is cooled to standard temperature at constant pressure. What will be the new volume of the gas? [2]

    • A gas is enclosed in a cylinder at STP. Keeping the pressure constant, if the volume is doubled what will be the new temperature? [1]

    • 2 L of a gas is enclosed in a vessel at a pressure of 760 mm Hg. If temperature remains constant, calculate pressure when volume changes to 4 L [2]
