Q2.A refrigerator operates between 5°C and 35°C. The coefficient of performance (COP) of an ideal refrigerator is:

  • A0.166
  • B9.27
  • C0.099
  • D6.0

Q3.In an isobaric process, the work done by an ideal gas when heated at constant pressure P from volume V₁ to V₂ is:

  • AP(V₂ - V₁)
  • BP(V₁ + V₂)
  • C(V₂ - V₁)/P
  • DP/( V₂ - V₁)

Q4.The molar specific heat at constant pressure Cp is related to Cv (at constant volume) by:
