    Dani Jo Owens
    The document discusses low temperatures and the states of matter. It asks a series of multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions about heating and cooling processes, gases, and scientists' discoveries related to liquefying different materials. Specific topics covered include oxygen and nitrogen as main components of air, how temperature and pressure determine states of matter, the gas used in early air conditioning breakthroughs, and James Dewar being the first to liquefy hydrogen.
