Pierce, Franklin

Even if you don t know who was the fourteenth president, you can still answer the question correctly because the wrong answers are obviously wrong. Walt Disney founded the Walt Disney Company, Tom Cruise is an actor, Oprah Winfrey is a talk show host, and Homer Simpson is a cartoon character. Answer choice c, Franklin Pierce, is therefore correct. 

But what if you know that George Washington was the first president and Abraham Lincoln was the sixteenth president The question gets even trickier because the other two incorrect answer choices are James Buchanan, the thirteenth president, and Millard Fillmore, the fifteenth president. In other words, unless you happen to know that Franklin Pierce was the fourteenth president, it would be very difficult to figure out he is the correct answer based solely on the answer choices.

Pierce began with the sample saturated with vapor at Pq and derived a pore size distribution by considering incremental desorption as the pressure was lowered. He used the cylindrical pore model and aj lied the Kelvin equation with the assumption that the residual layers were the same as on a non-porous suVface at the same pressure. In a later paper [24] he used the Franklin-Halsey-Hill (FHH) equation in the following form ...
