  2. Hydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen

    Hydrogen gas is very rare in Earth's atmosphere (around 0.53 ppm on a molar basis [99]) because of its light weight, which enables it to escape the atmosphere more rapidly than heavier gases. However, hydrogen is the third most abundant element on the Earth's surface, [ 100 ] mostly in the form of chemical compounds such as hydrocarbons and water.

  3. Molar mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass

    The molar mass of atoms of an element is given by the relative atomic mass of the element multiplied by the molar mass constant, M u ≈ 1.000 000 × 10 −3 kg/mol ≈ 1 g/mol. For normal samples from Earth with typical isotope composition, the atomic weight can be approximated by the standard atomic weight [ 2 ] or the conventional atomic weight.

  4. Vapour density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour_density

    vapour density = mass of n molecules of gas / mass of n molecules of hydrogen gas . vapour density = molar mass of gas / molar mass of H 2 vapour density = molar mass of gas / 2.01568 vapour density = 1 ⁄ 2 × molar mass (and thus: molar mass = ~2 × vapour density) For example, vapour density of mixture of NO 2 and N 2 O 4 is 38.3. Vapour ...

  5. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    Note that the especially high molar values, as for paraffin, gasoline, water and ammonia, result from calculating specific heats in terms of moles of molecules. If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol ...

  6. Liquid hydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_hydrogen

    Liquid hydrogen also has a much higher specific energy than gasoline, natural gas, or diesel. [12] The density of liquid hydrogen is only 70.85 kg/m 3 (at 20 K), a relative density of just 0.07. Although the specific energy is more than twice that of other fuels, this gives it a remarkably low volumetric energy density, many fold lower.

  7. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    In thermodynamics, the specific volume of a substance (symbol: ν, nu) is the quotient of the substance's volume (V) to its mass (m): = It is a mass-specific intrinsic property of the substance. It is the reciprocal of density ρ and it is also related to the molar volume and molar mass:

  8. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    In gas dynamics we are interested in the local relations between pressure, density and temperature, rather than considering a fixed quantity of gas. By considering the density ρ = M / V {\displaystyle \rho =M/V} as the inverse of the volume for a unit mass, we can take ρ = 1 / V {\displaystyle \rho =1/V} in these relations.

  9. Gas composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_composition

    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. It provides a molar mass for air of 28.9625 g/mol, and provides a composition for standard dry air as a footnote. [3]
