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.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

About 80% of major fungal systemic infections are due to Candida albicans. Another form, Candida peritonitis, occurs most often in postoperative patients. A rare disease, Candida meningitis, may follow leukemia, kidney transplant, other immunosuppressed factors, or when suffering from Candida septicemia.
