91. Co-efficient of Performance (COP) of a refrigerator is the ratio of the

  1. Work required to refrigeration obtained
  2. Refrigeration obtained to the work required
  3. Lower to higher temperature
  4. Higher to lower temperature

Correct answer: (B)
Refrigeration obtained to the work required

92. Co-efficient of performance for a reversed Carnot cycle working between temperatures T1 and T2 (T1 > T2) is

  1. T2/(T1 - T2)
  2. T1/(T1 - T2)
  3. (T1 - T2)/T1
  4. (T1 - T2)/T2

Correct answer: (A)
T2/(T1 - T2)

93. Compound having large heat of formation is

  1. More stable
  2. Less stable
  3. Not at all stable (like nascent O2)
  4. Either more or less stable; depends on the compound

Correct answer: (A)
More stable

94. Compressibility factor (i.e., the ratio of actual volume of gas to the volume predicted by ideal gas law) for all gases are

  1. Always greater than one
  2. Same at the same reduced temperature
  3. Same at the same reduced pressure
  4. Both (B) & (C)

Correct answer: (D)
Both (B) & (C)

95. Compressibility factor for almost all the gases are approximately same at the same

  1. Pressure and temperature
  2. Reduced pressure and reduced temperature
  3. Critical pressure and critical temperature
  4. None of these

Correct answer: (B)
Reduced pressure and reduced temperature

96. Compressibility factor of a gas is

  1. Not a function of its pressure
  2. Not a function of its nature
  3. Not a function of its temperature
  4. Unity, if it follows PV = nRT

Correct answer: (A)
Not a function of its pressure

97. Compressibility factor-reduced pressure plot on reduced co-ordinates facilitates

  1. Use of only one graph for all gases
  2. Covering of wide range
  3. Easier plotting
  4. More accurate plotting

Correct answer: (A)
Use of only one graph for all gases

  2. +94 kcal
  3. > 94 kcal
  4. < -94 kcal

Correct answer: (B)
+94 kcal

99. COP of a refrigerator drawing 1 kW of power per ton of refrigeration is about
