Q64 / 90 · JEE Main 2024 (06 Apr Shift 2) · Physics

Given below are two statements : Statement (I) : Dimensions of specific heat is $\left[\mathrm{L}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]$. Statement (II) : Dimensions of gas constant is $\left[\mathrm{M} \mathrm{L}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]$. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

  • A
    Both statement (I) and statement (II) are correct
  • Correct answer
    B
    Statement (I) is correct but statement (II) is incorrect
  • C
    Both statement (I) and statement (II) are incorrect Statement (I) is incorrect but statement (II) is correct
  • D
    Statement (I) is incorrect but statement (II) is correct

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & \Delta \mathrm{Q}=\mathrm{mS} \Delta \mathrm{T} \\ & \mathbf{s}=\frac{\Delta \mathrm{Q}}{\mathrm{m} \Delta \mathrm{T}} \\ & {[\mathrm{s}]=\left[\frac{\mathrm{ML}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2}}{\mathrm{MK}}\right]} \\ & {[\mathrm{s}]=\left[\mathrm{L}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]} \end{aligned}$
Statement-(I) is correct $\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{PV}=\mathrm{nRT} \Rightarrow \mathrm{R}=\frac{\mathrm{PV}}{\mathrm{nT}} \\ & {[\mathrm{R}]=\frac{\left[\mathrm{ML}^{-1} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right]\left[\mathrm{L}^3\right]}{[\mathrm{mol}][\mathrm{K}]}} \\ & {[\mathrm{R}]=\left[\mathrm{ML}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]} \end{aligned}$
Statement-II is incorrect

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
