For a mass $m$ of an ideal gas at constant pressure $P$,the volume versus temperature graph is represented by the straight line $B$. If the mass is changed to $2m$ and the pressure is changed to $2P$,which straight line will represent the new state?

Fill in the blanks:
$(i)$ At low $......$ and high $......$ temperature,real gases behave as an ideal gas.
$(ii)$ $......$ is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a gas.
$(iii)$ The kinetic energy of a gas with mass $m$ is $E$. Its momentum will be $......$.
$(iv)$ At $......$ temperature,$v_{rms}$ will be double that of $v_{rms}$ at $0^{\circ} C$.

$A$ vessel contains $14\,g$ of nitrogen gas at a temperature of $27^{\circ}\,C$. The amount of heat to be transferred to the gas to double the r.m.s. speed of its molecules will be $......J$ (Take $R = 8.32\,J\,mol^{-1}K^{-1}$)

The left and right compartments of a thermally isolated container of length $L$ are separated by a thermally conducting,movable piston of area $A$. The left and right compartments are filled with $\frac{3}{2}$ and $1$ moles of an ideal gas,respectively. In the left compartment,the piston is attached by a spring with spring constant $k$ and natural length $\frac{2L}{5}$. In thermodynamic equilibrium,the piston is at a distance $\frac{L}{2}$ from the left and right edges of the container as shown in the figure. Under the above conditions,if the pressure in the right compartment is $P = \frac{kL}{A} \alpha$,then the value of $\alpha$ is:

Assertion $(A):$ The total translational kinetic energy of all the molecules of a given mass of an ideal gas is $1.5$ times the product of its pressure and volume.
Reason $(R):$ The molecules of gas collide with each other and the velocities of the molecules change due to the collision.
