An ideal gas undergoes a cyclic transformation starting from point A and coming back to the same point by tracing the path A→B→C→D→A as shown in the three cases below.
Choose the correct option regarding \(\Delta U\):
- For a cyclic process, the internal energy change (\(\Delta U\)) is always zero as the system returns to its initial state.
- Since \(\Delta U\) is a state function, it depends only on the initial and final states, which are the same for all three cases.
Consider the following data:
- Heat of formation of \( CO_2(g) \) = -393.5 kJ mol\(^{-1}\)
- Heat of formation of \( H_2O(l) \) = -286.0 kJ mol\(^{-1}\)
- Heat of combustion of benzene = -3267.0 kJ mol\(^{-1}\)
The heat of formation of benzene is ……… kJ mol\(^{-1}\) (Nearest integer).
Which of the following is/are correct with respect to the energy of atomic orbitals of a hydrogen atom?
(A) \( 1s<2s<2p<3d<4s \)
(B) \( 1s<2s = 2p<3s = 3p \)
(C) \( 1s<2s<2p<3s<3p \)
(D) \( 1s<2s<4s<3d \)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A proton is moving undeflected in a region of crossed electric and magnetic fields at a constant speed of \( 2 \times 10^5 \, \text{m/s} \). When the electric field is switched off, the proton moves along a circular path of radius 2 cm. The magnitude of electric field is \( x \times 10^4 \, \text{N/C} \). The value of \( x \) is \(\_\_\_\_\_\). (Take the mass of the proton as \( 1.6 \times 10^{-27} \, \text{kg} \)).
The magnitude of heat exchanged by a system for the given cyclic process ABC (as shown in the figure) is (in SI units):
