Which of these is true about the absolute temperature of an ideal gas?
 a. It is directly proportional to the average speed of the gas particles.
  b. It is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the gas particles.
  c. It does not depend on the average kinetic energy of the gas particles.
  d. It is directly proportional to the volume of the gas particles.
  e. It is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas particles.

Question 2

This curve shows the distribution of atomic speeds calculated from an experiment in which particles of gas are projected through an apparatus as shown on page 217 of your textbook. How would the distribution of speeds change if the temperature of the gas were increased?
 a. The shape of the distribution would remain qualitatively the same, but would shift to the right.
  b. Same as answer a., except that the shift is to the left.
  c. The distribution is not affected by temperature.
  d. The peak gets higher without shifting over while the height of other parts of the curve decreases.
  e. The peak gets lower without shifting over while the height of other parts of the curve increases.

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system destroys its own healthy tissues. When this occurs, white blood cells cannot distinguish between pathogens and normal cells.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Symptoms of kidney problems include a loss of appetite, back pain (which may be sudden and intense), chills, abdominal pain, fluid retention, nausea, the urge to urinate, vomiting, and fever.

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
