The following is an actual question given on a University of Arizona chemistry mid-term, and an actual answer turned in by a student.

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 an d the rate at which they 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, the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until All Hell Breaks Loose!

2. If He is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls ion 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!”

This student received an A+

Did you read the title of this Forum? It is HUMOR

sO IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER IF THIS IS "REAL" OR NOT.

I received this off-line, and thus didn't check, as it doesn't matter. As Larry the Cable Guy says, "I don't care who you are, that was funny!"

If you have nothing better to do than look up jokes on Snopes, perhaps you need to get a job.

Dang... some of you take humor way too seriously.

And some might see something meant to be humorous and not an actual occurrence and believe it is true. She wasn't trying to be nasty to the OP at all, she just felt she should be helpful and point out what she knew in case people actually believed it. I'm sure she'll be less inclined to try and be helpful after this sadly.

I've gotten it before several times in my email and gotten a chuckle out of it even though it was presented in such as factual not humor.
