When $128 \, g$ of oxygen gas is heated from $0 \, ^oC$ to $100 \, ^oC$,the average values of $C_v$ and $C_p$ are $5 \, cal \, mol^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ and $7 \, cal \, mol^{-1} \, K^{-1}$ respectively. Find the values of $\Delta U$ and $\Delta H$.

The heat evolved in the combustion of methane is given by the following equation: $CH_{4(g)} + 2O_{2(g)} \to CO_{2(g)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}$; $\Delta H = -890.3 \ kJ$. How many grams of methane would be required to produce $445.15 \ kJ$ of heat of combustion?

An ideal gas is expanded from $(p_1, V_1, T_1)$ to $(p_2, V_2, T_2)$ under different conditions. The correct statement$(s)$ among the following is(are):
[$A$] The work done on the gas is maximum when it is compressed irreversibly from $(p_2, V_2)$ to $(p_1, V_1)$ against constant pressure $p_1$.
[$B$] The work done by the gas is less when it is expanded reversibly from $V_1$ to $V_2$ under adiabatic conditions as compared to that when expanded reversibly from $V_1$ to $V_2$ under isothermal conditions.
[$C$] The change in internal energy of the gas is $(i)$ zero,if it is expanded reversibly with $T_1=T_2$,and $(ii)$ positive,if it is expanded reversibly under adiabatic conditions with $T_1 \neq T_2$.
[$D$] If the expansion is carried out freely,it is simultaneously both isothermal as well as adiabatic.
