Terephthalic acid is an organic compound with formula C 6 H 4 (CO 2 H) 2.This white solid is a commodity chemical, used principally as a precursor to the polyester PET, used to make clothing and plastic bottles.
Many gases have toxic properties, which are often assessed using the LC 50 (median lethal concentration) measure. In the United States, many of these gases have been assigned an NFPA 704 health rating of 4 (may be fatal) or 3 (may cause serious or permanent injury), and/or exposure limits (TLV, TWA/PEL, STEL, or REL) determined by the ACGIH professional association.
Abundance (atom fraction) of the chemical elements in Earth's upper continental crust as a function of atomic number; [5] siderophiles shown in yellow Graphs of abundance against atomic number can reveal patterns relating abundance to stellar nucleosynthesis and geochemistry.
Fission product yields by mass for thermal neutron fission of U-235, Pu-239, a combination of the two typical of current nuclear power reactors, and U-233 used in the thorium fuel cycle
Balyktykol is an oval lake located on a slightly hilly plain roughly sloping to the north. Three intermittent watercourses flow into the lake from the west, southwest and the southeast.
EBLM J0555-57 is a triple star system approximately 670 light-years from Earth. The system's discovery was released on July 12, 2017. EBLM J0555-57Ab, the smallest star in the system, orbits its primary star with a period of 7.8 days, and currently is the smallest known star with a mass sufficient to enable the fusion of hydrogen in its core.
The rules are the same as those of orthodox chess except as follows. The game is played on a vertically oriented regular hexagonal board with sides 6 cells long, which has 91 hex cells having three colours (light, dark, and mid-tone), with the middle cell (or "hex") usually mid-tone. [5]
Size comparison of SCR 1845-6357 A and B, compared to Solar System objects. The primary, SCR 1845−6357A, is an ultra-cool red dwarf, one of the smallest and coolest stars so far discovered, with a mass of about 7% of the Sun's, a radius 9.4% of the Sun's, and an effective temperature of 2,400 K (2,100 °C; 3,900 °F).
