2. List of physical quantities - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_quantities

   Mass fraction: x: Mass of a substance as a fraction of the total mass kg/kg 1: intensive (Mass) Density (or volume density) ρ: Mass per unit volume kg/m 3: L −3 M: intensive Mean lifetime: τ: Average time for a particle of a substance to decay s T: intensive Molar concentration: C: Amount of substance per unit volume mol⋅m −3: L −3 N ...

3. Intensive and extensive properties - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_and_extensive...

   For example, the mass of a sample is an extensive quantity; it depends on the amount of substance. The related intensive quantity is the density which is independent of the amount. The density of water is approximately 1g/mL whether you consider a drop of water or a swimming pool, but the mass is different in the two cases.

4. Density - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

   Mathematically, density is defined as mass divided by volume: [1] =, where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume. In some cases (for instance, in the United States oil and gas industry), density is loosely defined as its weight per unit volume , [ 2 ] although this is scientifically inaccurate – this quantity is more ...

5. Specific volume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

   For a substance X with a specific volume of 0.657 cm 3 /g and a substance Y with a specific volume 0.374 cm 3 /g, the density of each substance can be found by taking the inverse of the specific volume; therefore, substance X has a density of 1.522 g/cm 3 and substance Y has a density of 2.673 g/cm 3. With this information, the specific ...

6. Relative density - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

   A United States Navy Aviation boatswain's mate tests the specific gravity of JP-5 fuel. Relative density, also called specific gravity, [1] [2] is a dimensionless quantity defined as the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of a given reference material.

7. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle's_law

   For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. [2] Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when the temperature is held constant.

8. Density (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_(disambiguation)

   Density, mass per unit volume Bulk density, mass of a particulate solid or powder divided by the volume it occupies; Particle density (packed density) or true density, density of the particles that make up a particulate solid or a powder; Neutral density, mass density of seawater; Area density or surface density, mass over a (two-dimensional) area

9. Mass concentration (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_concentration_(chemistry)

   In chemistry, the mass concentration ρ i (or γ i) is defined as the mass of a constituent m i divided by the volume of the mixture V. [1]= For a pure chemical the mass concentration equals its density (mass divided by volume); thus the mass concentration of a component in a mixture can be called the density of a component in a mixture.
