  2.    Easy availability
  3.    High specific heat capacity
  4.    Low boiling point
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> High specific heat capacity
Question 357. Water is not suitable as a calorimetric substance because it :
  1.    Has high specific heat
  2.    Is a good conductor
  3.    Has high boiling point
  4.    Low latent heat of vapourization
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Has high specific heat
Question 358. How much mechanical work must be done to completely melt 1 gram of ice at 0°C ?
  1.    4.2 J
  2.    80 J
  3.    336 J
  4.    2268 J
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 80 J
Question 359. Water pipes in hilly areas often burst on a cold frosty night, because
  1.    The material of which pipes are made contracts due to cold and so breaks
  2.    Water in the pipes freezes and on freezing water expands, so pipes break
  3.    Frost makes the pipes rusty, so they break
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Water in the pipes freezes and on freezing water expands, so pipes break
Question 360. Which of the following represents a relation for ''heat lost = heat gained'?

  2.    Principle of colors
  3.    Principle of calorimetry
  4.    Principle of vaporization
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Principle of calorimetry
