Find mole fraction of Enflurane if we run O2 through a vaporizer at 25C. The pressure of the mixture is 750 torr.
Xenflurane = vapor-of-enflurane/total-pressure Xenflurane = 217/750 or 0.29
28
Define Boiling Point
Boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure is equal to the ambient pressure (normally one atmosphere).
29
How does boiling point relate to the pressure of a liquid

1atm/760torr = xatm/740torr >> x = .974atm Since O2 is 21% >>>> (0.21)(9.74atm) = 0.204atmPgas; Since S = kHPgas; then >>> S = .042x.204 = .0086g/L or 8.6mg/L
65
Lattice energy vs Salvation energy
1) Lattice energy - is the attraction of solute particles for each other. 2) Solvation energy - the attraction of solute particles and solvent molecules.
66
Endothermic vs. Exothermic process when a solution forms

They are inversely related (i.e. decrease in pH is associated with an increase in [H+]).
103
What happens when a primary acid-base disturbance alters one component of the PCO2/[HCO3- ] ratio?

108
Given the following ABG values: - pH - 7.30 - PaCO2 - 65 1) What is the hydrogen ion concentration? 2) What is the bicarbonate ion concentration? 3) What is the acid-base disorder?
1) H+ = 10^9-7.3 = 50.1nEq/L 2) Since [H+] = 24 x PCO2/HCO3 ¯ then [HCO3 -] = 24 x (65 / 50.1 ) >>> [HCO3 -] = 31.1 mEq/L 3) Compensated condition - since pH is within normal range but HCO3- is high
