Boiling point & atmospheric pressure
A solvent boils when its vapour pressure matches atmospheric pressure
Water boils at 60 degrees C on Mount Everest (due to lower atmospheric pressure)
Primary function of a transformer in a circuit
Increases or decreases voltage
Describe the operation of a thermistor
Decreased resistance with increasing temperature
Immediate management of laser induced airway fire
Remove ETT & stop all gas flows
Sterilisation of choice for objects sensitive to heat and moisture
Ethylene oxide
Where are mainstream CO2 analysers?
Directly in circuit.
Faster response than sidestream
Use infrared absorption (as with sidestream)
