$A$ sample of $n$-octane $(1.14 \ g)$ was completely burnt in excess of oxygen in a bomb calorimeter,whose heat capacity is $5 \ kJ \ K^{-1}$. As a result of the combustion reaction,the temperature of the calorimeter increased by $5 \ K$. The magnitude of the heat of combustion of octane at constant volume is $.......... \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ (nearest integer).

In an irreversible process taking place at constant $T$ and $P$ and in which only pressure-volume work is being done,the change in Gibbs free energy $(dG)$ and change in entropy $(dS)$ satisfy the criteria:

Consider the following statements:
Statement-$I$: Both internal energy $(U)$ and work $(w)$ are state functions.
Statement-$II$: During the free expansion of an ideal gas into vacuum,the work done is zero.
The correct answer is:

$C_{(s)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{2(g)} + 400 \; kJ$
$C_{(s)} + \frac{1}{2} O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{(g)} + 100 \; kJ$
When coal of purity $60 \%$ is allowed to burn in the presence of insufficient oxygen,$60 \%$ of carbon is converted into $CO$ and the remaining is converted into $CO_2$.
The heat generated when $0.6 \; kg$ of coal is burnt is (in $; kJ$)

The standard entropies of $X_2, Y_2$ and $XY_3$ are $60, 40$ and $50 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. For the reaction $X_2 + 3Y_2 \rightleftharpoons 2XY_3; \Delta H = -60 \ kJ$ to be at equilibrium,the temperature should be.....$K$
