( )T with the amount of heat supplied (Q)

in an isobaric process corresponding to

monoatomic (M), diatomic (D) and

polyatomic (P) gas. The initial state of all the

gases are the same and the scales for the two

axes coincide. Ignoring vibrational degrees

of freedom, the lines a, b and c respectively

correspond to: [2013]

1. The temperature of an open room of volume

30 m^3 increases from 17 to 27 C C due to

sunshine. The atmospheric pressure in the

room remains 1 10^5 Pa. If ni and nf are the

number of molecules in the room before and

after heating, then nfni will be: [2017]

   such a way that a length of 8 cm extends above
   the mercury level. The open end of the tube is
   then closed and sealed and the tube is raised
   vertically up by additional 46 cm. What will
   be length of the air column above mercury in
   the tube now? (Atmospheric pressure = 76
