Explanation / Answer

Q1. False. Kinetic energy has nothing to do with the stability of a molecule. Do you think water at 273 K (lower kinetic energy) is more stable than water at 373 K (higher kinetic energy)? No, right. To break the bonds of water you are going to need the same amount of energy at both the temperature. I hope above question answers your query! Potential energy is a good measure of stability of molecule and not kinetic energy. NOTE that Kinetic energy is proportional to square of velocity, and velocity of a molecule can be increased or decreased by increasing or decreasing the temperature.

Q2. True. E = hv where E is energy, h is Plank's constant, v is frequency. So, higher frequency means higher energy. As microwave radiation (3*1010-3*1012 Hz) is lower than the visible region (3*1014-3*1015 Hz). Hence, the statement is true.

Q3 True. The statement is second law of themodynamics.

Q4. True. Any chemical reaction which occur by absorption of light is called photochemical reaction.

Q5. True. In Endothermic reactions more energy is required to make bonds than break bond, and this diffrence of energy is taken from surrounding, that is why endothermic reaction result into cooling of system (reaction mixture).

Q6. True. For charged species potential energy is inversely proportional to square of distance (Coulomb's Law). So, smaller the distance larger the potential energy and vice-versa.
