5. In mixture A and B components show -ve deviation as
a) \[\triangle V_{mix} >0\]
b) \[\triangle H_{mix} <0\]
c) A – B interaction is weaker than A – A and B – B interaction
d) A – B interaction is stronger than A – A and B – B interaction

6. A pressure cooker reduces cooking time for food because
a) boiling point of water involved in cooking is increased
b) the higher pressure inside the cooker crushes the food material
c) cooking involves chemical changes helped by a rise in temperature
d) heat is more evenly distributed in the cooking space

Answer: a
Explanation: On increasing pressure, the temperature is also increased. Thus in pressure cooker due to increase in pressure the b.p. of water increases
