Q

If you had a balloon filled with helium tied and suspended in a vehicle, and the vehicle accelerated, which way would the balloon travel?

A

The balloon would travel in the same direction of the acceleration, which is counterintuitive. If accelerating forward, the helium filled balloon will move forward because the density of the helium (4 g/mol) is less than that of the surrounding air (29 g/mol). Given that the air has more density, the air has greater inertia than the helium and resists the forward motion more than the helium, shifting the air backward and causing the helium to shift forward. Super cool example.

Q

What is the normal adult blood pressure?

A

Less than 120mmHg systolic/ 80mmHg diastolic.

Hypertension is having at least two blood pressures exceeding the 140/90.

Q

Compare and contrast STP and standard state conditions.

A

They both refer to temperatures and pressures, but have different purposes.

STP is 273 K and 1 atm and generally used for gas law calculations.

Standard state conditions are generally 298K, 1 atm, at 1M concentrations (1mol/L), and are used when measuring standard enthalpy, entropy, free, energy, changes, and electrochemical cell voltage.

Q

Name some characteristics that make the gas phase unique.

A

Q

What are the assumptions made for an ideal gas?

A

An ideal gas represents a hypothetical gas with molecules that have no intermolecular forces and occupy the volume.

Although real gases deviate from this ideal behavior at high pressures, low volume, and low temperatures, many compressed gases demonstrate behavior that is close to ideal.

What is vapor pressure? What is evaporation? (you know what evaporation is, but there is a way that this chapter describes evaporation)

A

Vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by evaporated particles above the surface of a liquid. Evaporation is a dynamic process that requires the molecules at the surface of a liquid to gain enough energy to escape into the gas phase.
