236. Pick out the correct statement.

  1. A substance existing above its critical temperature is called a saturated vapor
  2. A mixture of vapor gas is called saturated, if the equilibrium vapor pressure of the liquid is more than the partial pressure of the vapor at the same temperature
  3. Heat added to or given up by a substance at constant temperature is called the sensible heat
  4. The end points of a vapor-pressure vs. temperature curve are critical and triple points

Correct answer: (D)
The end points of a vapor-pressure vs. temperature curve are critical and triple points

237. Pick out the wrong conversion formula for the conversion of weight units:

  1. 1 tonne = 1000 kg = 22.046 lbs
  2. 1 U.S. ton = 907 kg = 0.907 tonne = 0.893 ton
  3. 1 ton = 2240 lbs = 1016 kg = 1.016 tonnes = 1.12 U.S. tons
  4. None of these

Correct answer: (D)
None of these

238. Pick out the wrong statement about the recycle stream in a process.

  1. Recycling in a process stream helps in utilising the valuable reactants to the maximum with minimum loss of reactants
  2. The ratio of the quantity of a reactant present in the reactor feed of a recycling operation to the quantity of the same reactant entering the process as fresh feed is called combined feed ratio
  3. Recycling in a process does not help in getting higher extent of reaction
  4. Recycling is exemplified by refluxing back a part of the distillate to the distillation column to maintain the quantity of liquid within the column

Correct answer: (C)
Recycling in a process does not help in getting higher extent of reaction

239. Pick out the wrong statement.

  1. Refractories used in muffle furnace should have low thermal conductivity
  2. The electrical resistivity of refractories drops rapidly with rise in temperature
  3. For reducing spalling tendency, the refractory should be well fired and its porosity should be more
  4. Refractoriness under load (RUL) of a refractory is always less than its refractoriness

Correct answer: (A)
Refractories used in muffle furnace should have low thermal conductivity

240. Pick out the wrong statement:

  1. Clausius-Clapeyron equation relates the latent heat of vaporisation to the slope of the vapor pressure curve
  2. At the boiling point of liquid at the prevailing total pressure, saturated absolute humidity is infinite
  3. Percentage saturation and relative saturation are numerically equal for an unsaturated vapor gas mixture
  4. Clapeyron equation is given by dP/dT = (λ/T) (VG - VL); where, P = vapor pressure, T = absolute temperature, λ = latent heat of vaporisation, VG and VL = volumes of gas and liquid respectively

Correct answer: (C)
Percentage saturation and relative saturation are numerically equal for an unsaturated vapor gas mixture
