10) Question Explanation : We need to find the work done by friction when the pencil moves
once around a full circle of radius r = 1/π m.
Concept :
Use the work- Energy Theorem :
Wfriction = ΔK
The pencil moves at constant speed on the surface. so kinetic energy does not change.
Thus, the net work equals the work done by friction alone (negative work).
Solution:
Friction force :
Ff = μN = 0.5 × 5 = 2.5 N
Distance travelled in one complete circle

d = 2πr = 2π = 2m
Work done by friction will be negative.

27) Question Explanation: Identifying incorrect statements for an ideal gas expanding in
vacuum.
Concept: Free Expansion of gas.
Solution: For an ideal gas expanding into vacuum in an insulated rigid container, Pext = 0 and
q = 0. This means w = 0 and ΔU = 0.
w = −Pext​ΔV = 0.
ΔU = q + w = 0 + 0 = 0.
Since temperature remains constant for an ideal gas when ΔU = 0, the enthalpy change ΔH is
also zero.
ΔH = ΔU + Δ(PV) = 0 + 0 = 0.
Thus, the statement ΔH ≠ 0 is incorrect.
Final Answer: Option (1)

Question Explanation: Relationship between entropy change and enthalpy during phase
transition.
Concept: Entropy of Vaporization
Solution: The vertical line in the S-T graph represents a phase change where temperature
remains constant while entropy increases. For vaporization (liquid to gas), this occurs at the
higher boiling temperature (T = 100K). The entropy change ΔSvap is the difference between the
entropy values at this constant temperature.

Explain the question: Analyze diatomic gas process.

Concept: First Law and isochoric process.

Solution:
The given P–T diagram shows a straight line starting from the initial state (T1 = 47°C = 320 K,
P1 = 4 atm) and ending at a final state (T2 = 367°C = 640 K, P2 = 8 atm).

By calculating the ratios, we find and .

Since P ∝ T, according to the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), the volume of the system must be
constant (V = constant). This is an isochoric process. In such a process, the change in volume
ΔV is zero, which means no boundary work is performed by the system: w = –PΔV = 0.

For internal parameters of 2 moles (n = 2) of diatomic gas with R =

2 cal/mol⋅K, we calculate: ΔE = nCvΔT = 2 × 5 × 320 = 3200 cal and ΔH = nCpΔT = 2 × 7 ×
320 = 4480 cal.
At constant volume, heat q = ΔE = 3200 cal. Only option 1 aligns with these findings.

Explain the question: Identify the correct thermodynamic assertion.

Concept: This question is based on second law and process definitions.

Solution:
At equilibrium, the Gibbs free energy change ΔG is zero, but the standard Gibbs free energy
change ΔG° depends on the equilibrium constant (ΔG° = –RTln⁡ Keq) and is not necessarily zero.
Spontaneity requires ΔG = ΔH – TΔS < 0; therefore, exothermic reactions (ΔH < 0) with a
negative ΔS can be non-spontaneous at high temperatures.
The adiabatic relation PVγ = constant applies strictly to reversible processes of ideal gases. By
definition, any adiabatic process (whether reversible or irreversible) has zero heat exchange
with the surroundings (q = 0).
Since the entropy change of the surroundings is defined as ΔSsurrounding = –qactual /Tsurr, it must be
zero for all adiabatic paths.

Final Answer: Option (4)

49) Question Explanation: Calculate ΔG for an isothermal process using a V-P graph.

Concept: Gibbs Free Energy for Isothermal Process.

Solution: For an ideal gas undergoing an isothermal process, the change in Gibbs Free
Energy (ΔG) is calculated using the pressure ratio.
Since temperature is constant, the enthalpy change is zero, and ΔG depends solely on the
entropy change related to pressure.

For an isothermal process:

 From the ideal gas law, PV = nRT.
At point A: P1 = 1 atm, V1 = 20 L.
So, nRT = 1 × 20 = 20 L atm.
Given: P2 = 2 atm, P1 = 1 atm, and ln 2 = 0.7.
