Quiz 1 Study Guide Flashcards
What does the third law of thermodynamics state?
You cannot lower temperature of object to absolute zero.
What is soda lime? What causes it to change to violet?
- Removes Co2 from AGM. (absorbs 23 Liters of Co2 for every 100g of absorbant)
- pH sensitive dye that turns purple in presence of carbonic acid
Define acceleration. What causes it? What is its SI unit of measurement?
- How velocity changes with time
- Changes in speed, direction, or both
- m/s2
What is specific gravity? What instrument is used to measure it in liquids? How does it work?
- Relationship between objects density to water density
- Hydrometer
- Sinks until it displaces amount of fluid equal to its weight
What is the first law of thermodynamics?
- Change in internal energy = energy transferred from object with higher temp + work done on object
What does narrowing a tube do to speed and flow rate?
Speed tremendously increases, flow rate stays same
What is MAC r/t anesthetic gas? How does temp effect it?
- 50% of people will not move with certain dose of gas
- 1° C decrease in temp = 2-5% decrease in MAC
What does protein binding effect r/t pharmacodynamics of local anesthetics?
Duration of action
Pressure needed to maintain flow of fluid thru a tube is propotional to what? and inversly to?
- Proportional to pipe length and avg speed of fluid
- Inversly proportional to cross-sectional area of tube
What will happen if soda lime is bad? What should you do if you cant change it immediatly?
- Measure inspired Co2, patient will rebreathe co2
- Increase FGF
What is a saturated solution?
Solution contains max amount of solute
What happens to flow if you double, triple radius?
Double= flow increases 16-fold
Triple= flow increases by power of 80
What is displacement? Can work be done without it?
- Change in position related to its specific origin
- No. If there is no displacement, no work has been done.
How many joules is one calorie (thermochemical)?
4.184 J
What does Henry’s Law state?
If temp is constant, amount of gas dissolved in liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas
- What is work?
- What is its equation?
- What is its SI unit?
- The expentiture of energy also described as a force acting through a distance
- W = F x d
- F= magnitude of force
- d= magnitude of diplacement
- Joules
What does viscosity measure? What are the effects of high and low viscosity of fluid within a tube? What is viscosity of blood?
- Resistance to flow
- High viscosity= slow flow, Low viscosity= easier flow
- 1/30 poise
What has the greatest effect on flow through a tube?
Change in radius
- What is an Aneroid bell?
- What does it measure?
- What is a common example often used in anesthesia?
- What does it mean in greek?
- Gauge that relies on expansion and contraction of bellows as pressure changes
- Measures either absolute pressure (gauge sealed from atm) or gauge pressure (gauge open to atmosphere)
- Bourdon gauge
- Without llquid
What is the food Calorie? Why is capital C important?
- Food Calorie is a kilocalorie or 1,000 calories
- Calorie with a capital is 1,000x’s greater than calorie with lower-case c
What describes the process of dynamic equilibrium?
- Most chemical reactions are reversable
- Reactants combine to give products
- Products fall apart to give reactants
What is atmospheric pressure? What instrument is used to measure it? What is the SI unit?
- Air pressure from gearth pulling on atmosphere resulting in force spread over the earth’s surface
- Barometer
- 1 atm or 760mmHg
What is entropy?
A system’s randomness or disorder
Define heat. What is its SI unit?
- Energy that can be transferred from higher temp to lower temp object until both bodies are equal
- calories
When pH drops, weak acids become more _____
Nonionized
What is one thermochemical calorie?
The energy needed to raise the temp of 1g of water 1o C
What does Poiseuille’s Law state?
The laminar flow rate of an incompressible fluid though a tube is proportional to fourth power of its radius
What is tonicity?
Concentratons of solutes in osmotic systems
When pH increases, weak bases become more _____.
Nonionized
Base + base = _____
Nonionized
How does temp effect gas?
As temp increases solubility decreases
What does the second law of thermodynamics state? What is another name for it?
- When two objects are in contact, heat flows from hot object to cold
- Entropy Law
What is a manometer? How does it work?
- Tool used to measure pressure differences
- One end connects to the pressure system being measured. Other end to atmosphere. Difference then calculated.
