|
PV= nRT
P= pressure, V= volume, n= number of moles, R= a constant of proportionality knows as ideal gas constant = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K |

|
List the properties of helium
|
- Helium is an inert gas (does not form any compound).
- It is insoluble in blood. - It has lower density but higher viscosity than air. - It has high thermal conductivity. - It can increase the signal of other gases (inhalational contrast). |
|
When is helium used?
|
- in pulmonary function testing
-the treatment of partial respiratory obstruction, -during laser airway surgery, -for diving at depth, -as a label in imaging studies. |
|
What is the pressure of a full E cylinder at 20 C
|
1800-2000
|
|
What are the 3 levels of pressure regulation?
|
High Pressure - 2000psig (cylinder)
Intermediate Pressure - 45-55psig (wall) Low pressure - 16 psig (outlet) |
|
Pascal's principle
|
The pressure applied to a confined fluid increases the pressure throughout the fluid by the same amount
|
|
Archemede's principle
|
An object floating on a fluid will displace a volume of fluid that has a weight equal to the weight of the object.
An object immersed in a fluid displaces a volume of fluid equal to the volume of the object An object in a fluid (floating or immersed) feels a buoyant force equal to the weight of fluid displaced. |
|
Bernoulli's principle

The faster a fluid flows, the less pressure it exerts
|
|
Viscosity

|
Define Density
|
Mass over volume. Most common units are grams/mls
Water's density is 1 gram/ml |
|
Define specific gravity
|
The density of an object over the density of water. Because it is relative to water it doesn't need units.
|
|
Dalton's Theory
|
Three parts:
1. Each element is composed of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms, which are identical for that element but are different (particularly their masses and chemical properties) from atoms of other elements 2.Chemical combination is simply the bonding of a definite, small whole number of atoms of each of the combining elements to make one molecule of the formed compound. A given compound always has the same relative numbers and types of atoms. 3.No atoms are gained, lost, or changed in identity during a chemical reaction; they are just rearranged to produce new substances. |
|
How to recognize Halogens on the periodic table.
|
In the second column from the right side of the periodic table, you will find Group Seventeen (Group XVII). This column is the home of the halogen family of elements. Who is in this family? The elements included are Fluorine (F), Chlorine (Cl), Bromine (Br), Iodine (I), and Astatine (At).

Common Elements in Anesthesia:
|
Aluminum: Used in anti-acids, and antiperspirants. Alloying it with other metals improves strength.
Barium: Barium swallow- radio opaque. Toxic but poorly absorbed. Calcium: Silver white or grey metal (not naturally in elemental form) essential part of leaves, bones, teeth, and shells. Carbon: Activated charcoal/anhydrous graphite used for absorption of ingested poisonous material. Chlorine: Toxic green gas, disinfectant. Flourine: Poisonous yellow gas. But good for your tooths. Bromine: Only liquid nonmetallic element. Heavy volatile liquid. Very dangerous, can cause skin injuries. Halogen. |

Tendency of a liquid to evaporate
Vapor pressure increases with temperature. Boiling point is reached when the temperature rises enough to make the vapor pressure exceed the atmospheric pressure. |
