Univers Materiel Flashcards
what is concentration?
the measure of the quantity of a solute dissolved in a quantity of a solution
what is the formula for concentration?
c = m/v
the higher the concentration the more the…
solute.
the lower the concentration the higher the…
volume.
what is a fluid?
a substance without a definite form that takes the same form as its container.
what are examples of a fluid
gas and liquid
what is a compressible fluid
a substance that can change its volume and can be COMPressed (gas)
what are three variables that can change a compressible fluid?
- number of particles (more particles = more collisions)
- temperature (particles move faster = collisions are harder)
- volume (less space = more collisions)
what is a incompressible fluid?
a substance thats volume cannot be compressed in a smaller space. (liquids)
what are three variables that can change a incompressible fluid?
- depth (more mass on the surface)
- volumic mass/density (more masse for the same depth)
- exterior pressure (external pressure is added to the pressure of a fluid)
