A liquid can exist only

• between triple and critical points

• at any temperature above melting point

• between melting and critical points

• between boiling and melting points

HCl gas is covalent and NaCl is an ionic compound. This is because

• sodium is highly electropositrve

• hydrogen is a non-metal

• HCl is a gas

• electronegativity difference between H and Cl is less than 2.1

Plot of Maxwell's distribution of velocities is given below.

Which of the following is correct about this plot?

• T₁ < T₂

• f₁ > f₂

• T₁> T₂

• V₁ < V₂

Formation of a solution from two components can be considered as

(1) pure solvent → separated solvent molecules, $∆$H₁

(2) pure solute → separated solute molecules, $∆$H₂

(3) separated solvent and solute molecules → solution, $∆$H₃ 

Solution so formed will be ideal if

• $∆{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{soln}} = ∆{\mathrm{H}}_1 - ∆{\mathrm{H}}_2 - ∆$H₃

• $∆{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{soln}} = ∆{\mathrm{H}}_3 - ∆{\mathrm{H}}_1 - ∆{\mathrm{H}}_2$

• $∆{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{soln}} = ∆{\mathrm{H}}_1 + ∆{\mathrm{H}}_2 + ∆{\mathrm{H}}_3$

• $∆{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{soln}} = ∆{\mathrm{H}}_1 + ∆{\mathrm{H}}_2 - ∆{\mathrm{H}}_3$
