Chemistry and physics of anesthesiology quiz trivia. An anesthetist deals with different liquid and gasses under pressure at varying temperature and volume. It is therefore important to understand the changes that each of them go through and what to term as odd. In this quiz, you will get to test out how much you know about these drugs, their effects, See moreuses as well as quantities to use. Do give it a try and see how informed you are.
