The lowest temperature possible in nature is
-273 °C.
4 K.
0 °C.
2)
A)
B)
C)
D)
E)
Entropy measures
temperature as pressure increases.
temperature at constant volume.
temperature at constant pressure.
messiness.
temperature as volume increases.
3)
A)
B)
C)
D)
Heating the earth's atmosphere is caused by energy
consumption. (Earth absorbs energy from the sun)
production.
both of these.
neither of these.
4) A process which takes place at constant temperature is
A) an isothermal process.
B) an adiabatic process.
C) impossible.
5) Suppose you rapidly stir some raw eggs with an eggbeater. The
temperature of the eggs will
A) decrease.
B) remain unchanged.
C) increase.
6) When work is done by a system and no heat added to it, the
temperature of the system
A) remains unchanged.
B) increases.
C) decreases.
7) When a volume of air is compressed and no heat enters or
leaves, the air temperature will
A) decrease.
B) increases.
C) remain unchanged.
8) As a system becomes more disordered, entropy
A) increases.
B) remains the same.
C) decreases.
9) The ideal efficiency for a heat engine operating between
temperatures of 2700 K and 300 K is
A) 10%.
B) 24%.
C) 80%.
D) 89%.
1 – 300/2700
E) none of these.
10) Consider a piece of metal that is at 10 °C. If it is heated until
it has twice the internal energy, its temperature will be
A) 20 °C.
PV = nRT (T must always be in Kelvins)
B) 273 °C.
C) 293 °C.
(273°C +10°C) * 2 = 566K
566K – 273°C = 293 °C
D) 566 °C.
E) none of these.
