Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Oxygen expands to 860 times its liquid volume at 25 C and 1 atm; therefore, the total volume of gaseous oxygen available can be calculated by multiplying the number of liters of liquid oxygen by 860.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The fractional distillation of liquid air creates pure liquid oxygen. There are no by-products from this method. Oxygen concentrators take in room air and separate oxygen from nitrogen.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
