Is hel exoterm of endoterm

Ik houd er niet van om hier engelse tekst te gaan posten, maargoed ik wil dit jullie niet onthouden. :oops:

The following is an actual question given on a McGill University chemistry mid-term Exam paper:

Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Support your answer with a proof

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyles 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 postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls 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. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that most people and their 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 Boyles Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand 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) Of course, 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 Ms. Celine LeBlanc during my Freshman year - that "it will be a cold night in Hell before I sleep with you" - and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then (2) cannot be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic.

The student got the only A!

Een nog betere versie is deze waarin de conclusie de volgende is:

So which is it ?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my freshman year

that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,? and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."

haha klopt, die had ik eerst ook al gezien, maar kon hem niet meer vinden.

Zou de eerste versie de gecensureerde versie zijn ofzo? :oops:

Inderdaad erg leuk.

Ook al kende ik hem al :oops:

Het cijfer "A" is volledig terecht.

Ik weet niet waarom jullie een beetje intelligent proberen te doen door allerlei Quotes naar voren te brengen ????

Als jullie gewoon zelf een beetje logisch nadenken dat weten jullie dat ieder systeen, wat voor dan ook, energie nodig heeft !!!!

En dus zal de hel energie uit je zuigen totdat je helemaal leeg bent !!!!

(kan duizenden jaren duren !!!! = HEL)

ENDOTHERM DUS !!!!!!!!!!

Re: Is hel exoterm of endoterm

mja, mja

maar als we nu, zoals in vorige topics (zie hier) over gediscussieerd is, aannemen dat godsdienst niet zou bestaan... dan bestaat "hell" helemaal niet, en is de vraag dan ook nutteloos... of onbeantwoordbaar...
