  2. Mass fraction (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    Mass fraction can also be expressed, with a denominator of 100, as percentage by mass (in commercial contexts often called percentage by weight, abbreviated wt.% or % w/w; see mass versus weight). It is one way of expressing the composition of a mixture in a dimensionless size ; mole fraction (percentage by moles , mol%) and volume fraction ...

  3. Abundance of the chemical elements - Wikipedia

    Another scale is mass fraction or, equivalently, percent by mass. [2] For example, the abundance of oxygen in pure water can be measured in two ways: the mass fraction is about 89%, because that is the fraction of water's mass which is oxygen. However, the mole fraction is about 33% because only 1 atom of 3 in water, H 2 O, is oxygen.

  4. Volume fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_fraction

    The percentage by volume (vol%, % v/v) is one way of expressing the composition of a mixture with a dimensionless quantity; mass fraction (percentage by weight, wt%) and mole fraction (percentage by moles, mol%) are others. At room temperature, water-ethanol mixture loses volume at any mixing ratio.

  5. Water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H 2 O.It is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, [c] and nearly colorless chemical substance.It is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a solvent [20]).

  6. 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.

  7. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water is the most abundant substance on Earth's surface and also the third most abundant molecule in the universe, after H 2 and CO. [23] 0.23 ppm of the earth's mass is water and 97.39% of the global water volume of 1.38 × 10 9 km 3 is found in the oceans. [84]

    log e (P i) = −5504.4088 T −1 − 3.5704628 − 1.7337458×10 −2 T + 6.5204209×10 −6 T 2 + 6.1295027 log e (T) For temperature range: 173.15 K to 273.15 K or equivalently −100 °C to 0 °C At triple point. An important basic value, which is not registered in the table, is the saturated vapor pressure at the triple point of water. The ...

  9. Law of definite proportions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_definite_proportions

    The law of definite proportion was given by Joseph Proust in 1797. [2]I shall conclude by deducing from these experiments the principle I have established at the commencement of this memoir, viz. that iron like many other metals is subject to the law of nature which presides at every true combination, that is to say, that it unites with two constant proportions of oxygen.
