  2. Neon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon

    Neon is a colorless, odorless, inert monatomic gas under standard conditions, with approximately two-thirds the density of air. Neon was discovered in 1898 alongside krypton and xenon , identified as one of the three remaining rare inert elements in dry air after the removal of nitrogen , oxygen , argon , and carbon dioxide .

  3. Gas composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_composition

    The standards below are two examples of commonly used and cited publications that provide a composition for standard dry air: ISO TR 29922-2017 provides a definition for standard dry air which specifies an air molar mass of 28,965 46 ± 0,000 17 kg·kmol-1. [2] GPA 2145:2009 is published by the Gas Processors Association.

    There are other definitions of standard gas conditions used in the USA besides 60 °F and 1 atmosphere. That being understood: 1 Nm 3 of any gas (measured at 0 °C and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure) equals 37.326 scf of that gas (measured at 60 °F and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure).

  5. Lifting gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_gas

    The lifting power in air of hydrogen and helium can be calculated using the theory of buoyancy. The buoyancy depends upon the difference of the densities (ρ air) − (ρ gas) rather than upon their ratios. The lifting force for a volume of gas is given by the equation: F B = (ρ air - ρ gas) × g × V

  6. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    This means that at this layer L = 0 and T = 220 K, so that the exponential drop is faster, with H TP = 6.3 km for air (6.5 for nitrogen, 5.7 for oxygen and 4.2 for carbon dioxide). Both the pressure and density obey this law, so, denoting the height of the border between the troposphere and the tropopause as U :

  7. Monatomic gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monatomic_gas

    One mole of atoms contains an Avogadro number of atoms, so that the energy of one mole of atoms of a monatomic gas is =, where R is the gas constant. In an adiabatic process , monatomic gases have an idealised γ -factor ( C p / C v ) of 5/3, as opposed to 7/5 for ideal diatomic gases where rotation (but not vibration at room temperature) also ...

  8. Standard atomic weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_atomic_weight

    This isotope mix causes the atomic weight of ordinary Earthly boron samples to be expected to fall within the interval 10.806 to 10.821. and this interval is the standard atomic weight. Boron samples from unusual sources, particularly non-terrestrial sources, might have measured atomic weights that fall outside this range.

  9. Isotopes of neon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_neon

    The abundances of the naturally occurring isotopes of neon. Neon (10 Ne) possesses three stable isotopes: 20 Ne, 21 Ne, and 22 Ne. In addition, 17 radioactive isotopes have been discovered, ranging from 15 Ne to 34 Ne, all short-lived. The longest-lived is 24 Ne with a half-life of 3.38(2) min. All others are under a minute, most under a second.
