  B) It is used in fire extinguishers because it does not support combustion.
  C) It is used to pump up bicycle tires.
  D) It is reacts with water to form carbonic acid.

Question 2

Water will boil spontaneously in a vacuum. Could you cook an egg in this boiling water?
 
  A) Yes, since the water is boiling it has enough energy to cook the egg even if it is at room temperature.
  B) No, because food is cooked by the transfer of thermal energy from the water to the food, and water at room temperature does not have enough thermal energy to cook an egg.
  C) Yes, since the food is not under pressure in the vacuum, it will also cook at a much lower temperature.
  D) No, the food would not cook because the thermal energy could not be transferred to the food in a vacuum.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

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.
