उत्तर
Pressure cooker increases the pressure and hence the boiling point increases. So, the boiling point becomes greater than 100°C.

Given below are observations on molar specific heats at room temperature of some common gases.
| Gas |
Molar specific heat (Cv) (cal mol–1 K–1) |
| Hydrogen | 4.87 |
| Nitrogen | 4.97 |
| Oxygen | 5.02 |
| Nitric oxide | 4.99 |
| Carbon monoxide | 5.01 |
| Chlorine | 6.17 |
The measured molar specific heats of these gases are markedly different from those for monatomic gases. Typically, molar specific heat of a monatomic gas is 2.92 cal/mol K. Explain this difference. What can you infer from the somewhat larger (than the rest) value for chlorine?
Specific heat capacity of substance A is 3.8 J g-1K-1 whereas the specific heat capacity of substance B is 0.4 J g-1 K-1
(i) Which of the two is a good conductor of heat?
(ii) How is one led to the above conclusion?
(iii) If substances A and B are liquids then which one would be more useful in car radiators?
Differentiate between heat capacity and specific heat capacity.
Give one example where high specific heat capacity of water is used as cooling purposes?
Ice cream appears colder to the mouth than water at 0℃. Give reason.
A certain amount of heat Q will warm 1 g of material X by 3°C and 1 g of material Y by 4°C. Which material has a higher specific heat capacity?
Describe a method to determine the specific heat capacity of a solid (say, a piece of copper).
A vessel of negligible heat*capacity contains 40g of ice in it at 0°C, 8g of steam at 100°C is passed into the ice to melt it. Find the final temperature of the contents of the vessel.
(Specific latent heat of vaporization of steam = 2268 J/g, specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 J/f and specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g°C)
Express the change in internal energy in terms of molar specific heat capacity.
