Document Summary

Note: vapour pressure is a fluid property so different fludids will have different. There is some cool engineering examples of when cavitation happens. Cavition can cause damange to things like rotating water pumps and ship propellors. Whenever the water pressure near something is chainging due to a force applied by that something, cavitation can happed. Basically trying to figure out the fluid pressure at a point pv = (nrut) /m. So basically, in chem 1301 we used a more basic verison of this concept that we could apply to certain contexts, but not all. I(cid:374) order to get the ideal gas law i(cid:374)to the for(cid:373) of p = rt, we (cid:374)eed to find a specific gas constant r for the gas. This is a ratio of our known universal gas constant and the molar mass in order to make it specific to that gas. Therefore constant t (ru is already a material constant)
