Q

At absolute zero, what happens to volume?

A

It is also zero.

17
Q

Gay Lussac’s Law relates what two values?

A

Pressure and temperature are directly proportional.

18
Q

What is a practical example of Gay-Lussac’s law?

A

N2O cylinder. As gas is released, the liquid in tank vaporizes and heat is lost. Temp in cylinder falls and the pressure drops.

19
Q

What is Avogadro’s Number?

A

6.022 x 10^23rd.

20
Q

What does Avogadro’s Law state?

A

The volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of gas molecules as long as the temperature and pressure are constant.

21
Q

The combination of Gay-Lussac’s, Charles’. and Boyle’s Laws are referred to as what?

A

The Ideal Gas Laws

22
Q

Unlike liquids and solids, gas density depends strongly on what two qualities?

A

Temperature and pressure

23
Q

Dalton’s Law of Partial pressures states?

A

That the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the component gases.

24
Q

Explain Mole fraction:

A

Mole fraction is dividing the number of moles in a particular gas by the combined number of moles in the mixture of gases.

25
Q

What is the vapor pressure of desflurane?

A

669

26
Q

What is the vapor pressure of sevoflurane?

A

160

27
Q

What is the vapor pressure of isoflurane?

A

240

28
Q

Which law can help predict that there is an absolute zero point?

A

Charles’ Law

29
Q

What is the relative humidity?

A

Mass of water in the air/ mass of water that will fit in the air.

30
Q

The temperature at which the moisture content in the air will saturate the air is called the what?

A

Dew point

31
Q

How is relative humidity related to normal physiology?

A

By the time the inhaled air reaches the alveoili, the RH should be nearly 100%
