📘 Introduction
The Gas Constant (R) plays a central role in understanding the quantitative relationships between pressure, volume, temperature, and moles of gases. In CBSE Class 11 Chemistry, particularly in Chapter 5: States of Matter – Gases and Liquids, mastering gas constant calculations helps students derive and apply the ideal gas equation (PV = nRT) effectively.
This online MCQ test on Gas Constants and Calculations has been prepared strictly according to the NCERT Class 11 Chemistry syllabus, ensuring complete relevance to CBSE board exam standards. Each question assesses your conceptual understanding of unit conversions, gas equation manipulation, and problem-solving involving universal gas constant values (R = 8.314 J·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ or 0.0821 L·atm·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹).
These Class 11 Chemistry MCQs will help students reinforce theoretical concepts, sharpen numerical accuracy, and build confidence for board and competitive exams such as JEE and NEET. Attempt this quiz to strengthen your grasp on gas constants, SI units, and ideal gas law calculations.
🧪 Sample MCQs (with Answers and Explanations):
Q1. The value of the universal gas constant (R) in L·atm·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ is:
A) 0.0821 B) 8.314 C) 62.36 D) 1.00
✅ Answer: A
💡 Explanation: When using pressure in atmospheres and volume in liters, R=0.0821 L⋅atm⋅mol−1⋅K−1R = 0.0821 \, L·atm·mol^{-1}·K^{-1}.
Q2. Which is the correct SI unit of the gas constant R?
A) J·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ B) Pa·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ C) N·mol⁻¹·K D) atm·mol⁻¹·K
✅ Answer: A
💡 Explanation: In the SI system, R=8.314 J⋅mol−1⋅K−1R = 8.314 \, J·mol^{-1}·K^{-1}, where 1 J = 1 Pa·m³.
Q3. At 300 K, 1 mol of an ideal gas exerts 1 atm pressure. What is its volume?
A) 22.4 L B) 24.5 L C) 20.0 L D) 25.0 L
✅ Answer: B
💡 Explanation: Using PV=nRTPV = nRT: V=nRT/P=(1×0.0821×300)/1=24.63≈24.5LV = nRT/P = (1×0.0821×300)/1 = 24.63 ≈ 24.5 L.
Q4. If the gas constant R = 8.314 J·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹, what is its value in L·atm·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹?
A) 0.0821 B) 0.8314 C) 1.013 D) 62.36
✅ Answer: A
💡 Explanation: 1 L⋅atm=101.325 J1\, L·atm = 101.325\, J, hence 8.314/101.325≈0.08218.314 / 101.325 ≈ 0.0821.
Q5. For 0.5 mol of gas at 273 K and 2 atm, the volume is:
A) 5.6 L B) 11.2 L C) 22.4 L D) 44.8 L
✅ Answer: A
💡 Explanation: From PV=nRTPV = nRT: V=nRT/P=(0.5×0.0821×273)/2≈5.6LV = nRT/P = (0.5×0.0821×273)/2 ≈ 5.6 L.
