Question:medium
The number of extensive and intensive properties in the list given below is respectively:
Density, enthalpy, mass, temperature, volume, pressure
The number of extensive and intensive properties in the list given below is respectively:
Density, enthalpy, mass, temperature, volume, pressure
Density, enthalpy, mass, temperature, volume, pressure
Show Hint
A simple test: Divide the system into two equal halves. If the property value also divides by two (like mass or volume), it is Extensive. If the property value remains the same in both halves (like temperature or density), it is Intensive.

- 4, 2
- 1, 5
- 2, 4
- 3, 3
Show Solution
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Extensive properties depend on mass/size. Intensive properties are independent of size.
Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
Extensive: Enthalpy, Mass, Volume (scale with size).
Intensive: Density, Temperature, Pressure (remain constant upon division).
Count: 3 extensive, 3 intensive.
Step 4: Final Answer:
The count is 3, 3.

- The difference of temperature in a material can convert heat energy into electrical energy. To harvest the heat energy, the material should have:

- Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): With the increase in the pressure of an ideal gas, the volume falls off more rapidly in an isothermal process in comparison to the adiabatic process.
Reason (R): In an isothermal process, \( PV = \text{constant} \), while in an adiabatic process \( PV^\gamma = \text{constant} \). Here, \( \gamma \) is the ratio of specific heats, \( P \) is the pressure and \( V \) is the volume of the ideal gas.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:- JEE Main - 2025

- A poly-atomic molecule (C\(_3\)R, \(C_v = 4R\), where \(R\) is gas constant) goes from phase space point A (\(P_A = 10^4 \, \text{Pa}, V_A = 4 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}^3\)) to point B (\(P_B = 5 \times 10^4 \, \text{Pa}, V_B = 6 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{m}^3\)) to point C (\(P_C = 10^4 \, \text{Pa}, V_C = 8 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}^3\)). A to B is an adiabatic path and B to C is an isothermal path. The net heat absorbed per unit mole by the system is:
