IES-1. Ans. (a) Both A and R correct and R is the correct explanation of A
IES-2. Ans. (b) For perfect gas, both the assertion A and reason R are true. However R is not the explanation for A. A provides definition of perfect gas. R provides further relationship for enthalpy and internal energy but can't be reason for definition of perfect gas.
IES-3. Ans. (b) As internal energy is a function of temperature only. In isothermal expansion process no temperature change therefore no internal energy change. A Reversible isothermal expansion process is constant internal energy process i.e. dU = 0

IES-5. Ans. (d) (a) True. A water film, if formed, will act as a very poor conductor of heat and will not easily let the heat of the furnace pass into the boiler. An oil film if present, is even worse than water film and the formation of such films inside the boiler must be avoided.
(b) Since the mass and material are the same, the volumes must also be the same. For the same volume, the surface area of the plate is the greatest and that of the sphere is the least. The rate of loss of heat by radiation being proportional to the surface area, the plate cools the fastest and the sphere the slowest.
(c) True, for a monoatomic gas, C = 1 3

IES-6. Ans (b) In Perfect gas intermolecular attraction is zero. It will be only possible when intermolecular distance will be too high. High temperature or low pressure or both cause high intermolecular distance so choice 1 and 3.

IES-14. Ans. (a) 1 is false. At very low pressure, all the gases shown have z
≈
1 and behave nearly perfectly. At high pressure all the gases have z > 1, signifying that they are more difficult to compress than a perfect gas (for a given molar volume, the product pv is greater than RT). Repulsive forces are now dominant. At intermediate pressure, must gasses have Z < 1, including that the attractive forces are dominant and favour compression.IES-15. Ans. (a) IES-16. Ans. (d) IES-17.

IES-20. Ans. (b) During adiabatic process, work done = change in internal energy.
Since control man (so case of closed system). Intercept of path on X-axis is the work done by the process.
W = area of ∆A12 + area of □A2CB
W = 1
2 х (3 - 1) х 200 + 100 х (3 - 1) = 200 + 200 = 400 kJ
W = 1
2 (300 - 100) х 2 + 100 х 2 = 200 + 200 = 400 kJ
∴ From 1 →2.
U + Q = 1 U + W. 2
U – 1 U = W – Q = 400 – 200 = 200 kJ. 2 From 2 →1
Work done will be same Since adiabatic So Q = 0
U + Q = 2 U + W 1
W = U – 2 U = – (1 U – 1 U ) = – 200 kJ. 2
