    Study Notes

    Fluid Types

    • Non-Newtonian fluids do not obey Newton's Law of viscosity.
    • Newtonian fluids obey Newton's Law of viscosity.

    Fluid Properties and Uses

    • Fluids are useful for transporting, processing, and using different kinds of materials due to their ability to flow and change shape.

    Slurries and Tar Sands

    • A slurry is a mixture of a fluid and solid particles.
    • Tar sands, also known as oil sands, are a type of slurry that contains bitumen, a heavy crude oil.
    • Tar sands are processed to separate the bitumen from other minerals through extraction and refining.

    Fluid Applications

    • Fluids are used in various industries to make solids, such as in the manufacturing of paper, textiles, and ceramics.
    • Materials like cement, concrete, and mortar can be spread or moved more easily when held in a fluid.

    Synthetic Materials and WHMIS

    • Synthetic materials produced in a lab have specific purposes and uses.
    • WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System) provides information on hazardous materials, including their safe handling, use, and storage.
    • WHMIS provides information on physical and health hazards, safe handling procedures, and personal protective equipment.

    Hazardous Materials

    • Hazardous materials can cause serious harm to humans and the environment.
    • Examples of hazardous materials mentioned in the text include chemicals and tar sands.
    • Hazardous materials have warning symbols, such as the Hazardous Household Product Symbols (HHPS), to alert users of potential dangers.
    • All hazardous materials have the potential to cause physical and health hazards.
    • WHMIS does not mention firewood as a hazardous material.
