Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The increased temperature will increase the kinetic activity of the molecules which make up the gas. Charles law states that pressure and temperature are directly proportional. An increase in temperature will increase the pressure.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Either decreasing the temperature or increasing the atmospheric pressure will decrease the evapo-ration rate.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
