- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]

- The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant \(K_1\) and \(K_2\) with thickness \(d/2\) and \(d/2\) respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If \(K_1 = 1.25 K_2\), the value of \(K_2\) is :
