Also from first law : dq = CvdT + pdV
For one mole of an ideal gas : pV = RT
⇒ pdV + Vdp = RdT
From (i) pdV = Vdp
Substituting in Eq. (ii) gives
2pdV = RdT

8. pH = 1 ∴ [H+] = 10－1 = 0.1M

pH = 2 ∴ [H+] = 10－2 = 0.1M
For dilution of HCl, M1V1 = M2V2
0.1×1 = 0.01× V2
V2 = 10L
Volume of water to be added = 10－1 = 9L

9. For the elementary reaction, M → N

Rate law can be written as
Rate ∝ [M]n
Rate = k[M]n ...(i)
When we double the concentration of [M],
rate becomes 8 times, hence new rate law can be written as

13. Graphite has a two-dimensional sheet like structure and each carbon atom makes a use
of sp2 hybridisation. The above layer structure of graphite is less compact than that of
diamond. Further, since the bonding between the layers involving only van der Waal’s
forces is weak, these layers can slide over each other. This gives softness, greasiness
and lubricating character of graphite.

14. Ozone layer acts as a shield and does not allow ultraviolet radiation from sun to reach
earth. It does not prevent infra-read radiation from sun to reach earth, thus option (4)
is wrong statement and so it is the correct answer.
