Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Subtract 10 lb from 38 lb = 28 lb. Convert 28 lb/2.5 lb/L = 11.2 lb. 11.2 lb  860 = 9632 L. Then divide by liter flow: 9632 L/6 L/min = 1605 minutes, or 27 hours.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
A flexible diaphragm is attached to a piston to compress gas. As the piston moves down, the di-aphragm is bent outward and gas is drawn through a one-way valve into the cylinder. Upward movement of the piston forces the gas out of the cylinder through a separate one-way outflow valve. Examples of diaphragm compressors are the Air Shields Diapump and the DeVilbiss small nebulizer compressor.
