$A$ musical instrument $P$ produces sound waves of frequency $n$ and amplitude $A_P$. Another musical instrument $Q$ produces sound waves of frequency $\frac{n}{4}$. The waves produced by $P$ and $Q$ have equal energies. If the amplitude of waves produced by $P$ is $A_P$,the amplitude of waves produced by $Q$ will be: (in $A_P$)
A
$2$
B
$4$
C
$6$
D
$9$

Solution

(B) The energy $E$ of a sound wave is proportional to the square of its frequency $n$ and the square of its amplitude $A$.
$E \propto n^2 A^2$.
Given that the energies of the waves produced by $P$ and $Q$ are equal,we have:
$n_P^2 A_P^2 = n_Q^2 A_Q^2$.
Substituting the given values $n_P = n$ and $n_Q = \frac{n}{4}$:
$n^2 A_P^2 = (\frac{n}{4})^2 A_Q^2$.
$n^2 A_P^2 = \frac{n^2}{16} A_Q^2$.
$A_P^2 = \frac{A_Q^2}{16}$.
$A_Q^2 = 16 A_P^2$.
Taking the square root on both sides,we get:
$A_Q = 4 A_P$.

Question diagram
A
$OR$,$A+B$
B
$AND$,$A \cdot B$
C
$NOR$,$\overline{A+B}$
D
$NAND$,$\overline{A \cdot B}$

Solution

(A) The given circuit consists of a $NOR$ gate followed by a $NOT$ gate.
$1$. The output of the $NOR$ gate is $\overline{A+B}$.
$2$. This output is then passed through a $NOT$ gate (inverter),which performs the complement operation.
$3$. The final output $Y$ is the complement of the $NOR$ output: $Y = \overline{(\overline{A+B})} = A+B$.
$4$. The Boolean expression $A+B$ corresponds to the $OR$ gate.
Therefore,the combination of a $NOR$ gate and a $NOT$ gate acts as an $OR$ gate.

At a certain temperature,$\operatorname{rod} A$ and $\operatorname{rod} B$ of different materials have lengths $L_A$ and $L_B$ respectively. Their coefficients of linear expansion are $\alpha_A$ and $\alpha_B$ respectively. It is observed that the difference between their lengths remains constant at all temperatures. The ratio $L_{A}: L_{B}$ is given by
A
$\frac{\alpha_A}{\alpha_B}$
B
$\frac{\alpha_B}{\alpha_A}$
C
$\frac{\alpha_A+\alpha_B}{\alpha_A}$
D
$\frac{\alpha_A+\alpha_B}{\alpha_B}$

Solution

(B) Let the initial lengths be $L_A$ and $L_B$ at temperature $T_0$. At a temperature $T = T_0 + \Delta T$,the new lengths are:
$L_A' = L_A(1 + \alpha_A \Delta T)$
$L_B' = L_B(1 + \alpha_B \Delta T)$
The difference in lengths is $\Delta L = L_A' - L_B' = (L_A - L_B) + (L_A \alpha_A - L_B \alpha_B) \Delta T$.
For the difference in length to remain constant at all temperatures,the term containing $\Delta T$ must be zero.
Therefore,$L_A \alpha_A - L_B \alpha_B = 0$.
$L_A \alpha_A = L_B \alpha_B$.
Thus,the ratio $\frac{L_A}{L_B} = \frac{\alpha_B}{\alpha_A}$.

The first operation involved in a Carnot cycle is
A
isothermal expansion.
B
adiabatic expansion.
C
isothermal compression.
D
adiabatic compression.

Solution

(A) Carnot cycle consists of four reversible processes:
$1$. Isothermal expansion: The gas expands at a constant temperature $T_1$ by absorbing heat from the source.
$2$. Adiabatic expansion: The gas expands further without any heat exchange,and its temperature drops to $T_2$.
$3$. Isothermal compression: The gas is compressed at a constant temperature $T_2$ by rejecting heat to the sink.
$4$. Adiabatic compression: The gas is compressed further without any heat exchange,and its temperature rises back to $T_1$.
As shown in the $P-V$ diagram,the cycle starts with isothermal expansion from state $1$ to state $2$. Therefore,the correct option is $A$.

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a velocity of one-fifth of the velocity of sound. The percentage increase in the apparent frequency is (in $\%$)
A
$5$
B
$10$
C
$20$
D
$25$

Solution

(C) When an observer moves towards a stationary source of sound,the apparent frequency $n^{\prime}$ is given by the Doppler effect formula:
$n^{\prime} = \left( \frac{v + v_{o}}{v} \right) n$
Where $v$ is the velocity of sound and $v_{o}$ is the velocity of the observer.
Given that $v_{o} = \frac{v}{5}$,we substitute this into the formula:
$n^{\prime} = \left( \frac{v + \frac{v}{5}}{v} \right) n = \left( \frac{\frac{6v}{5}}{v} \right) n = \frac{6}{5} n = 1.2n$
The increase in frequency is $\Delta n = n^{\prime} - n = 1.2n - n = 0.2n$.
The percentage increase is $\left( \frac{\Delta n}{n} \right) \times 100 = \left( \frac{0.2n}{n} \right) \times 100 = 20 \%$.

Velocity of sound waves in air is $330 \ m/s$. For a particular sound wave in air,a path difference of $40 \ cm$ is equivalent to a phase difference of $1.6 \pi$. The frequency of this wave is: (in $Hz$)
A
$165$
B
$150$
C
$660$
D
$330$

Solution

(C) Given: Velocity of sound $v = 330 \ m/s$,path difference $x = 40 \ cm = 0.4 \ m$,and phase difference $\phi = 1.6 \pi$.
We know the relationship between phase difference and path difference is given by $\phi = \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda} \cdot x$.
Substituting the values: $1.6 \pi = \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda} \times 0.4$.
$1.6 = \frac{0.8}{\lambda} \implies \lambda = \frac{0.8}{1.6} = 0.5 \ m$.
Using the wave equation $v = f \lambda$,we find the frequency $f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$.
$f = \frac{330}{0.5} = 660 \ Hz$.

$A$ sonometer wire is stretched by hanging a metal bob. The fundamental frequency of vibration of the wire is '$n_1$'. When the bob is completely immersed in water,the frequency of vibration of the wire becomes '$n_2$'. The relative density of the metal of the bob is
A
$\frac{n_1^2}{n_1^2-n_2^2}$
B
$\frac{n_2^2}{n_1^2-n_2^2}$
C
$\frac{n_1^2}{n_1^2+n_2^2}$
D
$\frac{n_2^2}{n_1^2+n_2^2}$

Solution

(A) The fundamental frequency of a sonometer wire is given by $n = \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$,where $T$ is the tension in the wire.
When the bob is in air,the tension $T_1 = W = mg$,where $W$ is the weight of the bob.
So,$n_1 = \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{W}{\mu}}$.
When the bob is immersed in water,the effective weight (tension) becomes $T_2 = W - F_B$,where $F_B$ is the buoyant force.
$T_2 = W - \frac{W}{\sigma} = W(1 - \frac{1}{\sigma})$,where $\sigma$ is the relative density of the metal.
So,$n_2 = \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{W(1 - 1/\sigma)}{\mu}}$.
Taking the ratio: $\frac{n_1}{n_2} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{1 - 1/\sigma}} = \sqrt{\frac{\sigma}{\sigma - 1}}$.
Squaring both sides: $\frac{n_1^2}{n_2^2} = \frac{\sigma}{\sigma - 1}$.
$n_1^2(\sigma - 1) = n_2^2 \sigma$.
$\sigma(n_1^2 - n_2^2) = n_1^2$.
Therefore,$\sigma = \frac{n_1^2}{n_1^2 - n_2^2}$.

The end correction for the vibrations of air column in a tube of circular cross-section will be more if the tube is
A
reduced in length.
B
increased in length.
C
made thinner.
D
widened.

Solution

(D) The end correction $e$ for a tube of circular cross-section is given by the formula $e = 0.6r$ or $e = 0.3d$,where $r$ is the radius and $d$ is the diameter of the tube.
Since the end correction $e$ is directly proportional to the diameter $d$ $(e \propto d)$,increasing the diameter of the tube will result in a larger end correction.
Therefore,the end correction will be more if the tube is widened.

Here,$M$ is the molar mass,$n$ is the number of atoms per unit cell,$a^3$ is the volume of the unit cell,and $N_A$ is Avogadro's number.
Rearranging the formula to solve for $n$: $n = \frac{\rho \times a^3 \times N_A}{M}$.
Substituting the given values: $n = \frac{8.6 \ g \ cm^{-3} \times 21.5 \ cm^3 \ mol^{-1}}{92.0 \ g \ mol^{-1}}$.
$n = \frac{184.9}{92.0} \approx 2$.

Given: $\rho = 10 \ g \ cm^{-3}$,$a = 4 \times 10^{-8} \ cm$,$N_A = 6.022 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1}$.
Substituting the values: $10 = \frac{M \times 2}{(4 \times 10^{-8})^3 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}}$.
$M = \frac{10 \times 64 \times 10^{-24} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}}{2}$.
$M = \frac{10 \times 64 \times 0.1 \times 6.022}{2} = \frac{385.4}{2} \approx 192.7 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.

A
Simple cubic
B

C
Face-centred cubic
D

Solution

(B) The density formula is given by $\rho = \frac{n \times M}{a^3 \times N_A}$.
Rearranging for the number of atoms per unit cell $(n)$: $n = \frac{\rho \times N_A \times a^3}{M}$.
Given: $\rho = 4 \ g \ cm^{-3}$,$M = 149 \ g \ mol^{-1}$,$a = 5 \mathring{A} = 5 \times 10^{-8} \ cm$,and $N_A = 6.022 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1}$.
Substituting the values: $n = \frac{4 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \times (5 \times 10^{-8})^3}{149}$.
$n = \frac{4 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \times 125 \times 10^{-24}}{149} = \frac{301.1}{149} \approx 2.02$.

In a solid,$B^{-}$ ions occupy corners of a cube forming $ccp$ structure. If $A^{+}$ ions occupy half the tetrahedral voids,the formula of the solid is:
A
$A_2B$
B
$AB_2$
C
$A_2B_3$
D
$AB$

Solution

(D) In a $ccp$ structure,the number of effective atoms per unit cell is $4$. Since $B^{-}$ ions form the $ccp$ structure,the number of $B^{-}$ ions $= 4$.
In a $ccp$ lattice,the number of tetrahedral voids is twice the number of atoms,so the number of tetrahedral voids $= 2 \times 4 = 8$.
$A^{+}$ ions occupy half of the tetrahedral voids,so the number of $A^{+}$ ions $= 8 \times (1/2) = 4$.
The ratio of $A^{+} : B^{-}$ is $4 : 4$,which simplifies to $1 : 1$.
Therefore,the formula of the solid is $AB$.

A
solute - solute interactions,solute - solvent interactions and solvent - solvent interactions are of similar magnitude.
B
solute - solute interactions $>$ solute - solvent interactions $>$ solvent - solvent interactions.
C
solvent - solvent interactions $>$ solute - solvent interactions $>$ solute - solute interactions.
D
solute - solvent interactions $>$ solute - solute interactions $>$ solvent - solvent interactions.

Solution

(A) The solubility of a polar solute in a polar solvent is mainly due to the favorable interactions between the solute and solvent molecules. These interactions are crucial for the dissolution process.
The most appropriate explanation for this is when the solute - solute,solvent - solvent,and solute - solvent interactions are comparable in magnitude. This balance allows the solute to dissolve efficiently,as the solvent can break apart the solute molecules while maintaining similar intermolecular forces within the mixture.

Which of the following ionic solids exhibits a decrease in its solubility in water with an increase in temperature?
A
$NaCl$
B
$KNO_3$
C
$NaNO_3$
D
$Na_2SO_4$

Solution

(D) Among the given options,sodium sulfate $(Na_2SO_4)$ exhibits a decrease in solubility with an increase in temperature.
This behavior is unusual because,for most ionic solids,solubility tends to increase with temperature.
However,for $Na_2SO_4$,its dissolution is exothermic,meaning it releases heat when it dissolves in water.
According to Le Chatelier's principle,if the dissolution process is exothermic,increasing the temperature will shift the equilibrium to favor the undissolved solid,thereby reducing solubility at higher temperatures.
Solubility trends for other salts:
- $(1)$ $NaCl$ (Sodium chloride): $NaCl$'s solubility increases with temperature.
- $(2)$ $KNO_3$ (Potassium nitrate): $KNO_3$'s solubility increases significantly with temperature.
- $(3)$ $NaNO_3$ (Sodium nitrate): $NaNO_3$'s solubility also increases with temperature.

The solution containing $18 \ g \ dm^{-3}$ of glucose (molar mass $180 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) in water and another containing $6 \ g \ dm^{-3}$ of solute $A$ in water boil at the same temperature. What is the molar mass of $A$?
A
$54 \ g \ mol^{-1}$
B
$90 \ g \ mol^{-1}$
C
$120 \ g \ mol^{-1}$
D
$60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$

Solution

(D) Since both solutions boil at the same temperature,their elevation in boiling point $(\Delta T_b)$ must be the same.
Since $\Delta T_b = K_b \times m$,and $K_b$ is the same for the same solvent (water),the molality $(m)$ of both solutions must be equal.
Given concentration in $g \ dm^{-3}$ is $C = \frac{W}{V}$. For a fixed volume of solvent,the molarity and molality are proportional to the concentration divided by the molar mass.
$\frac{C_{\text{glucose}}}{M_{\text{glucose}}} = \frac{C_A}{M_A}$
Substituting the given values:
$\frac{18}{180} = \frac{6}{M_A}$
$0.1 = \frac{6}{M_A}$
$M_A = \frac{6}{0.1} = 60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.

C
$6 \ g$ urea $dm^{-3}$ and $34.2 \ g$ sucrose $dm^{-3}$
D
$15 \ g$ urea $dm^{-3}$ and $171 \ g$ sucrose $dm^{-3}$

Solution

(C) Two solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane will not show any net flow of solvent if they are isotonic,meaning they have the same osmotic pressure $(\pi = CRT)$.
For solutions with the same volume,this condition is met if the number of moles of solute is equal $(n_{urea} = n_{sucrose})$.
Checking option $C$:
Moles of urea = $\frac{6 \ g}{60 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.1 \ mol$.
Moles of sucrose = $\frac{34.2 \ g}{342 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.1 \ mol$.
Since the number of moles is equal,the osmotic pressures are equal,and no net flow of solvent occurs.

A
$600.21$
B
$604.52$
C
$608.64$
D
$612.83$

Solution

(C) According to Raoult's Law for non-volatile solutes: $\frac{P^0 - P}{P^0} = \frac{n_2}{n_1 + n_2} \approx \frac{n_2}{n_1} = \frac{W_2 \times M_1}{M_2 \times W_1}$
Given: $W_2 = 2 \ g$,$W_1 = 50 \ g$,$M_2 = 64 \ g \ mol^{-1}$,$M_1 = 78 \ g \ mol^{-1}$,$P^0 = 640 \ mm \ Hg$
$\frac{640 - P}{640} = \frac{2 \times 78}{64 \times 50}$
$\frac{640 - P}{640} = \frac{156}{3200} = 0.04875$
$640 - P = 640 \times 0.04875 = 31.2$
$P = 640 - 31.2 = 608.8 \ mm \ Hg$
The closest value is $608.64 \ mm \ Hg$.

Solution

(C) The mole fraction of $A$ is $x_A = \frac{n_A}{n_A + n_B} = \frac{2}{2+3} = 0.4$.
The mole fraction of $B$ is $x_B = \frac{n_B}{n_A + n_B} = \frac{3}{2+3} = 0.6$.
According to Raoult's law,the total vapour pressure of the solution is $P_{\text{total}} = P_{A}^{\circ} x_A + P_{B}^{\circ} x_B$.
Substituting the values: $P_{\text{total}} = (420 \times 0.4) + (610 \times 0.6)$.
$P_{\text{total}} = 168 + 366 = 534 \ mm \ Hg$.

B
$P_1^* = P_1 x_1$
C
$P_1 = P_1^* x_2$

Solution

(A) The relation between the vapour pressure of the solution $(P_1)$,the vapour pressure of the pure solvent $(P_1^*)$,and the mole fraction of the solvent $(x_1)$ in the solution is defined by Raoult's Law for an ideal solution.
Raoult's Law states that for a solution of volatile liquids,the partial vapour pressure of each component in the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction present in the solution.
The mathematical expression is:
$P_1 = P_1^* \cdot x_1$
Where:
-$P_1$ is the partial vapour pressure of the solvent in the solution.
-$P_1^*$ is the vapour pressure of the pure solvent.

C
Non-ideal solutions do not obey Raoult's law over the entire range of concentration.
D

Solution

(D) $(1)$ Ideal solutions obey Raoult's law over the entire range of temperature and concentration: This is true. An ideal solution is one in which the intermolecular interactions between the components are identical to those between the molecules of the individual components.
$(2)$ For an ideal solution,$\Delta_{\text{mix}}V = 0$: This is true. In an ideal solution,the volume change upon mixing is zero,meaning the total volume of the solution is the sum of the volumes of the individual components.
$(3)$ Non-ideal solutions do not obey Raoult's law over the entire range of concentration: This is true. Non-ideal solutions exhibit deviations from Raoult's law due to differences in intermolecular forces between the components.
$(4)$ The vapour pressure of a non-ideal solution always lies between the vapour pressures of the pure components: This statement is false. In non-ideal solutions,the vapour pressure can be higher (positive deviation) or lower (negative deviation) than the vapour pressures of the pure components.

Which of the following statements is correct for an aqueous solution of $6 \ g \ L^{-1}$ urea and $17.12 \ g \ L^{-1}$ sucrose? [Molar mass of urea $= 60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$,Molar mass of sucrose $= 342 \ g \ mol^{-1}$]
A
Osmotic pressure exhibited by urea solution is lower than that of sucrose solution.
B
Urea solution is hypertonic to sucrose solution.
C
These solutions are isotonic.
D
On doubling the concentration of sucrose solution,it becomes hypertonic to urea solution.

Solution

(B) Calculate the molarity $(M)$ of the urea solution: $M_{urea} = \frac{6 \ g \ L^{-1}}{60 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.1 \ mol \ L^{-1}$.
Calculate the molarity $(M)$ of the sucrose solution: $M_{sucrose} = \frac{17.12 \ g \ L^{-1}}{342 \ g \ mol^{-1}} \approx 0.05 \ mol \ L^{-1}$.
Since osmotic pressure $\pi = CRT$,and the temperature $(T)$ is constant,the solution with higher molar concentration has higher osmotic pressure.
As $0.1 \ M > 0.05 \ M$,the urea solution has a higher osmotic pressure than the sucrose solution.
Therefore,the urea solution is hypertonic to the sucrose solution.

$A$ solution of non-volatile solute has a boiling point elevation of $1.75 \ K$. Calculate the molality of the solution $[K_{b} = 3.5 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}]$.
A
$0.77 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$
B
$0.69 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$
C
$0.50 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$
D
$0.35 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$

Solution

(C) The formula for boiling point elevation is $\Delta T_{b} = K_{b} \times m$.
Given $\Delta T_{b} = 1.75 \ K$ and $K_{b} = 3.5 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$.
Substituting the values: $1.75 \ K = 3.5 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1} \times m$.
Solving for molality: $m = \frac{1.75}{3.5} = 0.50 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$.

Which of the following equations correctly represents the molar mass of a solute by knowing the boiling point elevation?
A
$M_2 = \frac{1000 \times K_b \times W_2}{\Delta T_b \times W_1}$
B
$M_2 = \frac{1000 \times K_b \times W_1}{\Delta T_b \times W_2}$
C
$M_2 = \frac{1000 \times \Delta T_b \times W_1}{K_b \times W_2}$
D
$M_2 = \frac{1000 \times K_b \times W_2}{\Delta T_b \times W_1}$

Solution

(A) The elevation in boiling point $(\Delta T_b)$ is given by the formula: $\Delta T_b = K_b \times m$,where $m$ is the molality of the solution.
Molality $(m)$ is defined as the number of moles of solute $(n_2)$ per kilogram of solvent $(W_1 \text{ in grams})$.
$m = \frac{n_2 \times 1000}{W_1} = \frac{W_2 \times 1000}{M_2 \times W_1}$.
Substituting this into the elevation formula: $\Delta T_b = \frac{K_b \times W_2 \times 1000}{M_2 \times W_1}$.
Rearranging for the molar mass of the solute $(M_2)$: $M_2 = \frac{1000 \times K_b \times W_2}{\Delta T_b \times W_1}$.
