HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT...

Okay, so I do not normally share the joke emails i get here in my blog (I get about forty a day), but this one was just too good not to share. I found myself giggling like a school girl, and wishing I had had the guts to try getting away with answers like that when I was at school. I hope you all enjoy this one as much as I did. That's all, Bye.

HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT


The following is an actual question given on a
University of Washington
chemistry mid term.

The answer by one student was so 'profound' that the
professor shared it
with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of
course, why we now have the
pleasure of enjoying it as well :


Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or
endothermic (absorbs
heat)?


Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs
using Boyle's Law (gas
cools when it expands and heats 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 at which souls are moving into Hell
and the rate at which
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
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 two 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.'
