Question
Answer
The ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent.   Solubility  
Measured in terms of maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium.   Solubility  
The resulting solution is called   Saturated solution  
Gas over a liquid at a particular temp   Henry's Law  
At at a particular temperature the amount of a given gas dissolves in a given liquid is directly proportional to other partial pressure of the gas in equilibrium with the liquid   Henry's Law  
Particularly relevant to scuba divers   Henry's Law  
as you increase the pressure linearly for a gas dissolving in a liquid a proportional amount of gas will dissolve in a liquid   Henry's Law  
Build up saturation of nitrogen, when you resurface to quickly, it comes out of solution in the jts and tissue, this is   The Bents or The Caisson's  
Henry's Law only applies for   constant temperatures  
as temperature increases gases dissolve   less  
Pressure independent function   Ostwald solubility Coefficient  
as the ratio of the amount of substance present in one phase compared with another, the two phase being equal volume and equilibrium   Partition Coefficients  
Which gas is more soluble in the blood:gas coefficients? N2O, ether, halothane What are there bld:gas coefficients   Ether (12) Halothane(2.3) N20(0.47)  
The greater the insolubility (more equilibrium or speed)   the quicker induction rate  
Advantage of N20   has a quicker induction rate  
Disadvantage of N20   can lead to diffusion hypoxemia (reverse of 2nd gas effect) tx: extubate with 100% o2  
more soluble=more potent   oil:gas coefficient (effect)  
less anesthetic to achieve desired clinical effect   potency  
more insoluble=quicker induction rate   bld:gas coefficient(equilibrium or speed)  
which gas is more potent in bld   Ether  
which gas is more potent than ether   Halothane  
on the log scale with gas is most potent on pg 7   methoxytilurane  
Oxygen dissolves in blood at   0.003cc/100cc/mmHg partial pressure  
C02 dissolves in blood at   0.067cc/100cc/mmHg partial pressure  
rate of change of a quantity of any time is proportional to the quantity at that time   exponential process  
process by which the molecules of a substance transfer through a layer or area such as the surface of a solution   Diffusion  
smaller molecules diffuse   faster  
rate of diffusion of a substance across a unit area is proportional to the concentration gradient   fick's law  
this is affected by solubility of gas diffusing into liquid medium   rate of diffusion  
Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide rates of diffusion are different therefore more likely to become   hypoxemic  
Do liquid or gases take longer to diffuse   liquids  
Diffusion Rate= Reciprocal of the square root of the molecular weight   Graham's Law  
what is Graham's law equation   1/√MW 1 divided by the square root of MW=molecular wt  
Diffusion equation   (p1-p2)(area)(solubility)/ (memb. thickness)(√molecular wt)  
what is diffusion proportional to   tension gradient (p1-p2), solubility, and directly proportional to membrane area  
what is diffusion inversely proportional to   membrane thickness, the square root of MW of the substance diffusing  
usually occurs with a semi permeable membrane, this membrane is semi permeable to one or more solutes.   osmosis  
moles per liter   osmolarity  
moles per kilogram   osmolality  
osmotic pressure related to proteins   oncotic pressure  
body osmolarity is   300mmol per liter  
difference in osmolar gradient   oncotic pressure  
depression of vapor pressure of a solvent is proportional to the molar concentration of solute (measurement of osmolarity)   Raoult's Law  
factors that effect osmolarity   osmotic pressure, freezing pt depression, vapor pressure reduction, and boiling pt elevation. (colligative properties)  
a mixture which vaporizes in the same proportion as its constituent volume proportions   Azeotropes  
thermal state of a substance, determines whether heat will flow to or from the substance   Temperature  
a form of energy, transfer from hotter to cooler substance, energy is in the form of kinetic energy   heat  
SI unit of temperature   kelvins  
determined by general metabolic rate of person   heat production  
heat production=   50 W/m²=80 Watts total  
four principle routes with typical heat losses   Radiation, Convection, Evaporation, Respiration  
what are the heat losses in percent   Radiation 40% Convection 30% Evaporation 20% Respiration 10% (evaporation 8%,heating of air 2%)  
carries away heat, cooler object absorbs the heat. occurs in OR accounts for 50% heat loss   Radiation  
Adjacent layer of air is heated, that heated air rises carrying away heat.   Convection  
due to loss of latent heat of vaporization (liquid on the skin) as the liquid evaporates it sucks heat out of the body   Surface Evaporation  
small part of heat loss, accounts for 8% of humidifying inspired air   Respiration  
Inspiration of dry anesthetic gases may account for intra-op   hypothermia  
physiologic control of temp is mediated by   hypothalamus  
body temp below 35 degrees C   hypothermia  
fever, may be due to endogenous pyrogens or from bacterial infections   Pyrexia  
Succinylcholine and volatile anesthetics are known triggering agents for   malignant hyperthermia  
occurs when skin at or higher than 45 degrees for prolonged time   thermal burns  
quantity of heat required to increase the temperature of an object   Specific heat capacity  
SI unit of specific heat capacity   J/(kg k)  
amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a given object by 1 kelvin   heat capacity  
SI unit of heat capacity   J/K Joules per degree of kelvin  
amount of heat required to raise the temperature 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 kelvin   specific heat capacity  
4.18 Joules =   1 calorie  
4.18kJ=   1 kilocalorie=1C  
calculated by knowing the specific heat comtent, mass, and temperature   body heat content  
change of state without change in temperature, requires energy   latent heat  
joules per sec   watts

energy used when a substance change state from a liquid to a gas   latent heat of vaporization  
the heat required to convert 1kg of a substance from one phase to another at a given temp.   specific latent heat  
SI unit for specific latent heat   Jkg^-1  
at temperature decreases the specific latent heat   increases

universal gas law   pv=nRt R=0.0821 L atm mol-¹K-¹ p=pressure v=vol n=#'s moles of gas R=gas constant T=temp(K)  
the total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual component in a gas mixture.   Dalton's law  
SI units for pressure   pascals  
going form one force to another set of forces is called   Van de Waals Forces  
consists of identical particles of zero volume hypothetical gas   ideal gases  
equal vol of gases, at same temp. and pressure contain the same # of particles or molecules   Avogadro's Hypothesis  
one mole of ideal gas occupies   22.4 L @STP  
how many liters of N20 is in a full tank   1590  
the uptake of a volatile agent is increased when it is administered simultaneously with N20   Second Gas Effect  
One mole of particles of solute in 22.4L produces   101.35kPa (1atm)  
half life =   time constant * logℯ=time constant*0.693  
pressure=   force/area  
force=   pressure * area

distance=   volume/area
