Multiple choice particles of a gas ideal gases physics

Smoke rising from chimneys is example of

  1. Thermionic radiation

  2. Heating of molecules in a substance

  3. Motion of molecules in a substance

  4. Heat radiation
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Due to diffusion, smoke molecules leave the chimney and spreads in the atmosphere.Overall a diffusion process is seen in it as smoke particles diffuse into air particles.

Multiple choice particles of a gas ideal gases physics

Heating a liquid expands it because

  1. Molecules gain potential energy and due to it, motion of molecules is increased

  2. Molecules gain kinetic energy and due to it, motion of molecules is increased

  3. Molecules gain kinetic energy and due to it, motion of molecules is reduced

  4. Molecules gain potential energy and due to it, motion of molecules is reduced
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

As a liquid is heated, its molecules gain kinetic energy, motion of molecules is increased and the liquid expands.Overall interparticle distance increases.

Multiple choice particles of a gas ideal gases physics

In convection,

  1. Heat transfers by radiation of infrared waves

  2. Heat transfers by motion of molecules in a substance

  3. Heat transfers by collision of molecules

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In convection, heat transfer occurs because of motion of molecules of substance in upward direction.Convection, occurs due to temperature differences which affect the density, and thus relative buoyancy, of the fluid. Heavier (more dense) components will fall, while lighter (less dense) components rise, leading to bulk fluid movement.

Multiple choice particles of a gas ideal gases physics

Water is a universal solvent. During mixing,

  1. Molecules of the water are distributed uniformly across the solute.

  2. Molecules of the solute are distributed uniformly across the volume of water.

  3. Molecules of the solute and molecules of water both move very fast to make the solution.

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

As a solute is added to the water and mixed, its molecules are spread across the volume of water and solute is then dissolved in water.

Multiple choice particles of a gas ideal gases physics

Due to motion of molecules in a substance

  1. Smell of perfume spreads around the room

  2. Perfume bottle spreads around the room

  3. Perfume cools the room

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

When perfume is sprayed in corner of a room, its molecules moves around the room due to diffusion spreading the fragrance. Overall a diffusion process is seen in it as perfume particles diffuse into air particles.
