JEE Main 2025 Thermodynamics Question

A polyatomic molecule ( C V = 3 R , C P = 4 R , where  R  is the gas constant) goes from phase space point  A ( P A = 10 5 Pa , V A = 4 × 10 6 m 3 ) to point  B ( P B = 5 × 10 4 Pa , V B = 6 × 10 6 m 3 ) to point  C ( P C = 10 4 Pa , V C = 8 × 10 6 m 3 ).  A to  B is an adiabatic path and  B  to  C  is an isothermal path. Calculate the net heat absorbed per unit mole by the system.

Q:   What is the weightage of chapters in JEE exam?
A: 
Physics- 1. Optics 2. Magnetism mixed with mechanics 3. Rotational dynamics 4. Heat and thermodynamics 5 experiments and errors Chemistry - 1. Inorganic Chemistry (most scoring) 2. Organic chemistry 3. Atomic structure (one question for sure) 4. Equilibrium Mathematics - 1. Coordinate geometry (most important parabola) 2. Calculus (application of derivatives most important) 3. Trignometry (was the toughest for me) Most of the questions are usually asked from these topics. Getting a good hold of these topics can get you rank under 1000 in JEE adv. Hope this helps.
Q:   Which topics are most important in JEE Main Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics?
