Solubility Flashcards
- particular temperature
- amount of given gas dissolved
- partial pressure in equilibrium
Henry’s Law
If we double the pressure on a liquid in a container, we would expect more/less molecules in the liquid.
more
If we increase the temperature of the liquid in the container, we expect the amount of gas in the liquid to be more/less.
less
Gas is more soluble in _____ than in _____.
blood
water
The partial pressure of N2O in water and blood at 37ºC is:
1 atm in both instances
The _____ solubility coefficient is the volume of gas corrected to STP which dissolves into one unit volume of the liquid at the ________ concerned, where the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid is one standard atmosphere pressure.
Bunsen
temperature
- V1 = V2
- T1 T2
The volume of gas which dissolves in one unit volume of the liquid at the temperature concerned.
The volume of the gas is not measured in STP, but rather is measured at a known temperature and pressure.
Ostwald solubility coefficient
The Ostwald coefficient is independent of pressure. True or false?
True
The ratio of the amount of substance present in one phase compared with another, the two phases being of equal volume and in equilibrium.
partition coefficient
Blood gas coefficient of N20
0.47
Oil/blood partition coefficient of N2O at 37C
Blood oil partition is:
- 98 (1.4Liters/0.47Liters)
- 34
Arterial oxygen content equation:
(Hgb x 1.36 x SaO2) + (0.0031 x PaO2)
SaO2 = % of hemoglobin saturated with oxygen
(Normal range: 93-100%)
Hgb = hemoglobin Normal range(Adults): Male: 13-18 g/dl Female: 12-16 g/dl
PaO2= Arterial oxygen partial pressure
(Normal range: 80-100)
CaO2: Directly reflects the total number of oxygen molecules in arterial blood (both bound and unbound to hemoglobin)
Solubility of oxygen in plasma at 1 atmosphere is:
0.0031
Uptake of inhalational anesthetic =
solubility * CO * (PA-PV)
The insolubility of N2O causes the partial pressure to equilibrate rather quickly in the brain. Nitrous does not lose very much kinetic energy when entering the blood. True or false?
True
Potential error in volume measurement due to gas solubility in a water seal.
If there are a mixture of N20, O2 and N2 in a take surrounded by a large water seal, which gas would be lost to the water the most?
N20 since it is the most soluble in water. You will find increase of partial pressure of
also known as second gas effect
Solubility coefficient of N20 in oil:
1.4
Solubility coefficient of halothane in oil
