Q1. A reaction, A + B → C + D + q is found to have a positive entropy change. The reaction will be
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

ΔG = ΔH -T ΔS ΔS is positive and ΔH is negative as heat is liberated in the reaction. so ΔG is negative hence reaction will be spontaneous at all temperature.

Q2. In a process, 701 J of heat is absorbed by a system and 394 J of work is done by the system. What is the change in internal energy for the process?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

ΔU = q + w (1st law of thermodynamics) q = +701J (heat is absorbed by system) w = -394 J (work is done by system) ΔU = 701- 394 = 307J

Q3. The reaction of cyanamide, NCN (s), with dioxygen was carried out in a bomb calorimeter, and  was found to be 742.7 kJ  at 298 K. Calculate enthalpy change for the reaction at 298 K. NCN(g) +
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

 RT where Δng = 2-((3/2)+1)

Q4. Calculate the number of kJ of heat necessary to raise the temperature of 60.0 g of aluminium from 35 to 55. Molar heat capacity of Al is 24 J 
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

q=nC ΔT where n= 60.0/27 mole and ΔT = 20 K and C = 24J/mol K

Q5. Calculate the enthalpy change on freezing of 1.0 mol of water at 10.0 to ice at -10.0 H = 6.03 kJ at 0.1  
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:




Q6.
Enthalpy of combustion of carbon to is –393.5 kJ . Calculate the heat released upon formation of 35.2 g of from carbon and dioxygen gas.

Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

when 1 mole of  is produced energy released is –393.5 kJ Moles of given =35.2/44 =0.8 moles So energy released = 0.8 x393.5 KJ/mol = 315 KJ/mol

Q7. Enthalpies of formation of CO(g), )and  are -110, –-393, 81 and 9.7 kJ respectively. Find the value of  for the reaction: 
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:




Q8. Given = –-92.4 kJ  What is the standard enthalpy of formation of gas?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Standard Enthalpy of formation of NH3 is the energy change that take place when 1 mole of NH3 is formed from elements in standard state. For 2 moles of ammonia formation energy= –-92.4 kJ . For 1 mole energy =0.5 x–-92.4 kJ = -46.2 kJ 
Q9. For an isolated system, ΔU = 0, what will be ΔS?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

for isolated system ΔS = 0.

Q10. for the reaction at 298 K,    = 400 kJ and  = 0.2 kJ  At what temperature will the reaction become spontaneous considering  and  to be constant over the temperature range.
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

ΔG= ΔH-TΔS At equilibrium ΔG=0 then T= ΔH/ΔS =2000K
