NEET 2016 Physics Thermodynamics Questions

Use this page to connect the official 2016 paper with current Physics practice. NeetVellum does not claim a chapter appeared in that paper until the official question and final key have been mapped.

What to master

state variables, heat, work, thermodynamic processes and heat engines.

Original practice preview

These are current-syllabus NeetVellum questions, shown separately from historical-paper provenance.

Example 1 · difficulty 1/5

Bodies X and Y are each placed separately in thermal contact with body Z, and after some time neither X nor Y shows any further net exchange of heat with Z. What follows directly from the zeroth law of thermodynamics?

A. X and Y are in thermal equilibrium with each other
B. X and Y must contain equal quantities of heat energy
C. Heat will now begin to flow spontaneously from X to Y
D. X and Y must also have equal masses and equal volumes

Example 2 · difficulty 2/5

An ideal gas is sealed inside a perfectly rigid steel vessel and 250 J of heat is supplied to it. The change in internal energy of the gas is:

A. zero, because the volume of the gas does not change
B. less than 250 J, because part of the heat is spent in doing expansion work
C. 250 J, because no work is done by or on the gas
D. not determinable unless the molar specific heat of the gas is known

Example 3 · difficulty 2/5

An isotherm and an adiabat of an ideal gas intersect at a point on a P–V diagram. At that point, the magnitude of the slope of the adiabat is greater than that of the isotherm by a factor of:

A. (γ − 1)
B. γ
C. 1/γ
D. they have exactly equal slopes at the intersection point

The evidence-first practice loop

1. Verify provenanceOfficial paper and final key before accepting a PYQ label.
2. Attempt closed-bookExpose the concept or execution gap before rereading.
3. Repair and returnClassify the miss and re-practice after a delay.

Frequently asked questions

Are these official NEET 2016 Physics Thermodynamics PYQs?

No. The previews are original NeetVellum practice questions. A historical item receives a PYQ label only after its official paper and authoritative final answer key are attached. Use the official archive for the source paper.

How should I use the NEET 2016 paper?

Solve the official paper under its original timing, verify against the final key, classify every miss, and then use the linked current-syllabus practice bank to repair the exposed concept.
