Q

What is Bernoulli’s Principle?

A

Law states that the pressure of a fluid varies inversely with speed. An increase in speed producing a decrease in pressure and vice versa

*The faster a fluid flows, the less pressure it exerts

Q

What is the equation of continuity?

A

Relates to cross-sectional area of a tube and speed of fluid going through it

The rate at which mass enters a system is equal to the rate at which mass leaves the system, plus the accumulation of mass writhing the system.

When fluid is in motion, it must move in such a way that mass is conserved

Q

What is a Venturi tube flowmeter?

A

Works based on the Bernoulli effect.

There is a narrowing of the tube, which causes an increase in flow velocity. This decreases the pressure at this site, and causes an uptake of liquid or gas from an inlet at narrow portion of tube

Q

What is viscosity?

Standard unit?

A

A measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow.

Resulting from friction between molecules.

Standard unit of viscosity is: pascal-second

Q

What does Poiseuille’s theorem states that flow rate for a fluid through a tube depends on:

A
  1. Radius of the tube (proportional)
  2. Length of the tube (inverse)
  3. Pressure gradient (proportional)
  4. Viscosity of the fluid (inverse)

Q

What is Poiseuille’s Law

A

*ONLY for laminar flow

Flow rate of a fluid along a pipe is proportional to the fourth power of the pipe’s radius

18
Q

What is Reynold’s Number?

A

For a given liquid and tube there is critical flow rate above which the flow will become turbulent.

  • Inversely proportional to viscosity**
  • Proportional to density
  • Proportional to velocity
  • Proportional to tube diameter
19
Q

What is specific gravity?

A

Ratio of an objects density compared to the density of H2O

H2O specific gravity=1.0g/ml

20
Q

What are the states of matter?

A

Solid
Liquid
Gas

21
Q

What are solids?

A
  • have a definite volume and shape
  • molecules are closely packed together
  • intermolecular forces are strong enough to hold molecules rigidity in place with respect to each other
22
Q

What are liquids?

A
  • have a definite volume but no definite shape

- intermolecular forces are strong enough to hold molecules in a condensed phase

23
Q

What are gases?

A
  • have neither definite shape nor volume
  • are ideally independent molecules
  • intermolecular forces are essentially zero between molecules
24
Q

..What is kinetic-molecular theory of matter?

A

Attempts to describe all states of matter and the conversion between states

25
Q

What are ionic bonds?

A

Results from attraction between oppositely charged ions

26
Q

VSEPR

A

Electrons repel each other

27
Q

What is the valence bond theory?

A

Covalent bond results from overlap of 2 electron clouds

28
Q

What if electronegativity?

A

The tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons to itself

29
Q

What are intermolecular forces?

A

These are attractive forces between molecules or atoms

30
Q

What are London forces?

A

AKA: van deer waal’s forces

Are created by instantaneous dipoles

31
Q

What are effects of intermolecular forces?

A

More intermolecular forces mean

  • higher boiling and melting points
  • higher heats of fusion and vaporization
  • lower vapor pressure
  • more viscous fluids
  • important for medications and solubility
  • like dissolves like
32
Q

What is surface tension?

A

The tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface

-substances with greater intermolecular attractions have greater surface tensions

33
Q

What is the the Law of LaPlace?

A

The surface tension on a fluid depends on t3he pressure of the fluid and the radius of the fluid’s container or shape.

  • the tension on the surface of the blood vessel is directly proportional to the radius of the vessel
  • as radius gets bigger, wall tension gets bigger

Large blood vessel will have more wall tension than capillary (if BP constant)

34
Q

What is vapor pressure?

A

The pressure exerted by molecules that escape from a solid or liquid sample into the gas phase

-temperature increases vapor pressure

35
Q

What is dynamic equilibrium?

A

Describes a system in which the components of a system are allowed to change states, but the overall composition of the system is static.

-as many coming out into a liquid and vise versa

36
Q

What is boiling point?

A

The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals ambient pressure

37
Q

What is volatility?

A

The tendency of a liquid to evaporate

*des is most volatile gas we use

38
Q

What is vaporization?

A

The equilibrium process of a liquid converting into a gas. The opposite of condensation

39
Q

What are the various names for changes of state?

A
  • solid to liquid: melting
  • liquid to solid: freezing
  • liquid to gas: vaporization
  • gas to liquid: condensation
  • solid to gas: sublimation
  • gas to solid: deposition
40
Q

What are covalent bonds?

A

Result from sharing one or more pairs of elections

41
Q

What are micelles?

A

Tails that dissolve in each other forming a sphere. Creates a non-polar microenvironment in water
