  2. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    A repeating decimal or recurring decimal is a decimal representation of a number whose digits are eventually periodic (that is, after some place, the same sequence of digits is repeated forever); if this sequence consists only of zeros (that is if there is only a finite number of nonzero digits), the decimal is said to be terminating, and is not considered as repeating.

  3. Hydrophobicity scales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobicity_scales

    Vapor phases represent the simplest non polar phases, because it has no interaction with the solute. [18] The hydration potential and its correlation to the appearance of amino acids on the surface of proteins was studied by Wolfenden. Aqueous and polymer phases were used in the development of a novel partitioning scale. [19]

  4. Oxalic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxalic_acid

    It is the simplest dicarboxylic acid. It is a white crystalline solid that forms a colorless solution in water. Its name comes from the fact that early investigators isolated oxalic acid from flowering plants of the genus Oxalis, commonly known as wood-sorrels. It occurs naturally in many foods.

  5. Expected value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expected_value

    Despite the newly abstract situation, this definition is extremely similar in nature to the very simplest definition of expected values, given above, as certain weighted averages. This is because, in measure theory, the value of the Lebesgue integral of X is defined via weighted averages of approximations of X which take on finitely many values ...

  6. Categorical variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_variable

    Categorical data is the statistical data type consisting of categorical variables or of data that has been converted into that form, for example as grouped data. More specifically, categorical data may derive from observations made of qualitative data that are summarised as counts or cross tabulations , or from observations of quantitative data ...

  7. Helium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium

    Helium-4 and helium-3 both form several crystalline solid phases, all requiring at least 25 bar. They both form an α phase, which has a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) crystal structure, a β phase, which is face-centered cubic (fcc), and a γ phase, which is body-centered cubic (bcc). [112]

  8. Overpotential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overpotential

    An example is the electrolysis of an aqueous sodium chloride solution—although oxygen should be produced at the anode based on its potential, bubble overpotential causes chlorine to be produced instead, which allows the easy industrial production of chlorine and sodium hydroxide by electrolysis.

  9. Larson–Miller relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larson–Miller_relation

    F.R. Larson and J. Miller proposed that creep rate could adequately be described by the Arrhenius type equation: = / Where r is the creep process rate, A is a constant, R is the universal gas constant, T is the absolute temperature, and is the activation energy for the creep process.
