| The following is an actual question given on a University of Utah chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so profound that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet. And some how though e-mail made it to me. |

| Bonus Question: Is Hell (1) exothermic (gives off heat) or (2) Endothermic (absorbs heat)? Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs Using Boyle's Law (gas cools off when it expands and heats up when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
| "First we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So |
| we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate |
| they Are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul |
| gets to Hell, it will not leave. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, You will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and Since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that All souls go to Hell. |

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of The volume |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order |
| for the Temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of |
| Hell has to Expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two |
| possibilities: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 1) If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls |
| Enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase |
| until all Hell breaks loose. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 2) If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls |
| in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes |
| over. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa |
| during my freshman year, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep |
| with you,' and take into account the fact that I still have not |
| succeeded in having an affair with her, then #2 above cannot be true, |
| and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze over." |
|
| This student received the only "A." |
