Chemistry - Thermodynamics - I Question with Solution | TestHub

Specific heat is generally larger for the liquid than for the solid (water: 4.18 J/g-K vs 2.1 for ice) and larger for the liquid than the gas (4.18 vs about 2.0 for steam), so (a) and (b) are incorrect. Vaporization breaks all intermolecular attraction and has the larger latent heat: (c) true. For an ideal gas U = U(T): (d) true. Ans: (a), (b).
