Q

The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely propotional to its molecular weight - what law

A

Grahams

lower molecular weight = faster diffusion

*smaller particles, spread out faster than larger molecules

Q

Explain diffusion hypoxia

what law?

A

when nitrous is discontinued, it creates a large pressure gradient from lots of nitrous in the blood to now none in the alveoli

-nitrous rapidly diffuses into the alevoli, diluting the concentration of o2 there, causing diffusion hypoxia

ficks

*this is why you have to deliver a high amount of o2 when you d/c the nitrous

Q

As the partial pressure of the vapor above a liquid in a closed container increases
A. the vapor pressure of the substance decreases
B. the freezing point of the substance increases
C. the volume of the substance in the container decreases
D. the rate of vaporization will slow

A

Not C or A …..

D- think increased pressure above liquid = more molecules going into liquid, at some point there will be more molecules in liquid, decreasing the pressure gradient, slowing the rate of vaporization
