What is the first law of thermodynamics
This biological molecule accelerates chemical reactions in living organisms.
What is an enzyme?
An instrument used to measure air pressure as it varies with distance either above or below sea level. Italian scientist Evangelista Torricelli invented this in the year 1643
What is a barometer?
This law relates the partial pressure of a gas to its concentration in a liquid at equilibrium.
What is Henry's Law
This French biologist, microbiologist, and chemist is renowned for his discoveries of the principles of vaccination, microbial fermentation, and pasteurization.
Who was Louis Pasteur?
This type of collision between two objects occurs when the total kinetic energy of the system is not the same after the collision happens.
What is an inelastic collision?
This process involves the synthesis of proteins from an mRNA template.
What is translation?
This device measures the absorbance of UV and visible light by a sample.
What is a UV-Vis spectrophotometer?
This dimensionless group represents the ratio of convective to conductive heat transfer.
What is Nusselt Number?
This English chemist and X-ray crystallographer made critical contributions to the understanding of the molecular structures of DNA, RNA, viruses, coal, and graphite.

This instrument measures the amount of heat involved in a chemical reaction or other process.
What is a calorimeter?
This federal agency is charged with enforcement of safety and health legislation.
What is OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration)
This Danish physicist made foundational contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum theory, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922.

This English mathematician, computer scientist, logician, cryptanalyst, and theoretical biologist is considered the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.
Who was Alan Turing?
This effect describes the temperature change that occurs when fluid expands isenthalpically from high to low pressure such as when passed through a valve.
What is Joule-Thomson effect (or Joule-Kelvin effect)?
This process involves the addition of a poly(A) tail to the 3' end of an mRNA molecule, which is essential for the stability and export of the mRNA from the nucleus.
What is polyadenylation?
An instrument for measuring the amount of precipitation at a given location over a specified period of time.
