STANDARD Physics Heat Capacity MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

What amount of heat must be supplied 35 g oxygen at room temperature to raise its 80°C at constant volume? (molecular mass of oxygen is 32 and R = 8.3 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹)

A

1.52 kJ

B

3.23 kJ

C

1.81 kJ

D

1.62 kJ

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The heat supplied is calculated using Q = nCᵥΔT. With n = 1.09 mol and Cᵥ = (5/2)R, we find Q = 1.09 × (5/2) × 8.3 × 80 = 1.81 kJ.
