B Correct answer
Explanation

Vapour pressure or equilibrium vapour pressure or saturated vapour pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by a vapour in thermodynamic equilibrium with condensed phase at given temperature. At $100^oC$, the vapour pressure is $1atm$; i.e. 760mm of Hg i.e. 76cm of Hg as $1mm=10^{-1}cm$.

The water can be made to boil even at $0$ if the pressure of surrounding is:

A Correct answer
Explanation
The water can be made to boil even at $0^\circ C$. 
As we know, the ideal equation for gases is $pV=nRT$. Now, if $V$ and $n$ are taken constants, $p=cT$, where $c$ is a constant.
So pressure is directly proportional to the temperature.
Water boils at $100^\circ C$ or $373K$ at $1atm$ pressure. So, to obtain boiling at $0^\circ C$ or $273K$, you need to reduce the pressure to $\dfrac {273\times 1}{373} atm = 0.732 atm=56\text{cm of Hg}$(approx).

When 1 g of water at $100^\circ C$ gets converted into steam at the same temperature, the change in volume is approximately

  1. 1 cc

  2. 1000 cc

  3. 1500 cc

  4. 1670 cc

D Correct answer
Explanation

During change of state mass does not change.

Mass of water = 1gm
So mass of steam is also= 1gm
Density of steam =$0.0006gm/cm^3$
Initail volume of water =1$cm^3$(Density =$1gm/cm^3$) ($1=\dfrac { 1 }{ V } $) $,v=1cm^3$
Later volume of water converted to steam =$\dfrac { mass\quad of\quad steam }{ Density\quad of\quad steam } $
$=\dfrac { 1 }{ 0.0006 } $
$=\dfrac { 10000 }{ 6 } { cm }^{ 3 }$
$= 1670cm^3$
Change of volume = $1670cm^3$
