Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
RH = (AH/capacity)  100. (15 mg/L/20.6 mg/L)  100 = 72.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Medical aerosol must deposit anywhere from the upper airways to the lower airways; therefore, it must be the appropriate size for the target site, with a range of 0.2 m to 50 m. Fog and mist are considered aerosols, not water vapor. Medical aerosols need to be larger than water vapor mole-culesotherwise they would be too stable to deposit at their target site.

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.
