Assertion (A): The dissolution of

\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{Cl}

in water is endothermic but it dissolves in water.
Reason (R): On dissolution of

\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{Cl}

, entropy increases.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Both Assertion and Reason are correct; Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

Option B (Both Assertion and Reason are correct; Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion) is correct because while NH4Cl dissolution is endothermic and dissolves in water, the driving force is entropy increase, not a direct consequence of endothermicity.

Select the correct statement When

0.18 \mathrm{~g}

of glucose was burnt in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rose by

4 \mathrm{~K}.

The heat capacity of the calorimeter system is

\left(\Delta_{\mathrm{C}} \text{H}^{\circ}=-2.8\times 10^6 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol} \text{ glucose}\right)
