Q

Define and/or explain the following laws

2) 2nd law of thermodynamics

A

Entropy is “nearly” conserved, which means any decrease of entropy in a given region of space is almost balanced by an increase in another region. In an isolated system, the entropy never decreases.

20
Q

Define/explain the following

8) State function

A

A state function is a property of a system that depends only on the current state of the system, i.e. the initial and final state of the system.

21
Q

Define/explain the following

9) Pressure

A

Pressure = Force/Area; P=F/A

22
Q

10) Lipophillic and lipophobic

A
  • Lipophillic
  • Capable of dissolving, of being dissolved in, or of absorbing lipids.
  • Lipophobic:
  • Detergent is solvated in water. Contrasted to lipophilic or nonpolar.
  • Not soluble in lipids, or in non-polar solvents

11) Hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic solutions

A

Hypertonic:
Hypotonic:
Isotonic solutions:

24
Q

12) Emulsion

A

A mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible (unmixable or unblendable). Emulsions are part of a more general class of two-phase systems of matter called colloids.

25
Q

13) Thixotropy

A

A time-dependent shear thinning property.

Certain gels or fluids that are thick, or viscous, under static conditions will flow (become thin, less viscous) over time when shaken, agitated, sheared or otherwise stressed (time dependent viscosity).

They then take a fixed time to return to a more viscous state. In other words: some non-Newtonian pseudoplastic fluids show a

26
Q

14) Osmotic pressure

A

The minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of water across a semipermeable membrane.

It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in water by osmosis.

27
Q

15) Enthalpy change

A

At constant pressure, the enthalpy change equals the energy transferred from the environment through heating or work other than expansion work.
