A 5.0-liter gas tank holds 1.7 moles of monatomic helium (He) and 1.10 mole of diatomic oxygen (O2), at a temperature of 260 K.
 
  The ATOMIC masses of helium and oxygen are
  4.0 g/mol and 16.0 g/mol, respectively. What is the ratio of the root-mean-square (thermal) speed of helium to that of oxygen?
  A) 1.4
  B) 2.0
  C) 2.8
  D) 4.0
  E) 5.6

Question 2

An ideal gas is kept in a rigid container that expands negligibly when heated. The gas starts at a temperature of 20.0C, and heat is added to increase its temperature.
 
  At what temperature will its root-mean-square speed (thermal speed) be double its value at 20.0C?
  A) 40.0C
  B) 141C
  C) 313C
  D) 400C
  E) 899C

There used to be a metric calendar, as well as metric clocks. The metric calendar, or "French Republican Calendar" divided the year into 12 months, but each month was divided into three 10-day weeks. Each day had 10 decimal hours. Each hour had 100 decimal minutes. Due to lack of popularity, the metric clocks and calendars were ended in 1795, three years after they had been first marketed.

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.
