Since it is isothermal, ΔT=0 ΔU=nCCvΔT=0 Since expansion is taking place against vacuum Pext =0 W=−P ex ΔV=0 From first law of thermodynamics, ΔU=q+W 0=q+0 q=0
Choose the correct statement for the work done in the expansion and heat absorbed or released when 5 litres of an ideal gas at 10 atmospheric pressure isothermally expands into vacuum until volume is 15 litres:
Held on 30 Apr 2024 · Verified 9 Jul 2026.
Both the heat and work done will be greater than zero
Heat absorbed will be|less than zero and work done will be positive
Work done will be zero and heat will also be zero
Work done will be greater than zero and heat will remain zero

Phosphoric acid ionizes in three steps with their ionization constant values $\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_1}, \mathrm{~K}_{\mathrm{a}_2}$ and $\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_3}$, respectively, While K is the overall ionization constant. Which of the following statements are true? A. $\log \mathrm{K}=\log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_1}+\log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_2}+\log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_3}$ B. $\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{PO}_4$ is a stronger acid than $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{PO}_4^{-}$and $\mathrm{HPO}_4^{2-}$ C. $K_{a_1}\gt K_{a_2}\gt K_{a_3}$ D. $\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_1}=\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_3}+\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}_2}}{2}$ Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
If the half-life $\left(\mathrm{t}_{1 / 2}\right)$ for a first order reaction is 1 minutes, then the time required for $99.9 \%$ completion of the reaction is closest to:
