2. Lead exhausted in the atmosphere by automobiles using leaded petrol (i.e. tetraethyl lead for improving octane number) is a lethal air pollutant which causes
4. In a shell and tube heat exchanger for a given heat transfer surface area, smaller diameter tubes are favoured as compared to larger diameter ones ; because the smaller diameter tubes
Options
A. are easier to clean.
B. are less prone to fouling.
C. can be fitted into a smaller shell diameter hence the cost of the heat exchanger would be less.
Correct Answer: can be fitted into a smaller shell diameter hence the cost of the heat exchanger would be less.
5. According to Raoult's law, "The vapor pressure exerted by component in a solution is proportional to the mole fraction of that component." Raoult's law is not applicable under the following assumption/condition.
Options
A. No component is concentrated at the surface of the solution.
B. The component molecules are non polar and are of almost equal size.
C. In the formation of solution, chemical combination/molecular association between unlike molecules takes place.
D. The attractive forces between like and unlike molecules are almost equal.
Correct Answer: In the formation of solution, chemical combination/molecular association between unlike molecules takes place.
6. A rigid vessel containing three moles of nitrogen gas at 30°C is heated to 250°C. Assume the average capacities of nitrogen to be Cp = 29.1 J/mole.°C and, Cv = 20.8 J/mole.°C. The heat required, neglecting the heat capacity of the vessel, is
Correct Answer: the number of neutrons present in it.
