JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 5. Thermodynamics and thermochemistry

When a \(60\,W\) electric heater is immersed in a gas for \(100\,s\) in a constant volume container with adiabatic walls, the temperature of the gas rises by \(5^{\circ}\,C\). The heat capacity of the given gas is \(.........\,JK ^{-1}\) (Nearest integer)

  1. A \(1100\)
  2. B \(1200\)
  3. C \(1000\)
  4. D \(1600\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1200\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Power of heater \(=60\,W\) \(=60\,J / sec\) Total energy emitted \(=60 \times 100=6000\,J\) Heat capacity \(\times\) temp difference \(=6000\) Heat capacity \(=\frac{6000}{5}=1200\,JK ^{-1}\)
