Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The combined-gas law describes the macroscopic behavior of gases when any or all of the varia-bles change simultaneously. As such, the combined-gas law states that the absolute pressure of a gas is inversely related to the volume it occupies and directly related to its absolute temperature, or PV/T = nR.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
When the volume of a gas is constant, the temperature of the gas will rise as the pressure is in-creased (Gay-Lussac's law). Absolute zero is a theoretical temperature that has never been reached. The size of the container does not vary directly with volume.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
