    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_water

    Intracellular fluid (2/3 of body water) is fluid contained within cells. In a 72 kg (159 lb) body containing 40 litres of fluid, about 25 litres is intracellular, [8] which amounts to 62.5%. Jackson's texts states 70% of body fluid is intracellular. [9] Extracellular fluid (1/3 of body water

  3. Seawater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawater

    Seawater, or sea water, is water from a sea or ocean.On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5% (35 g/L, 35 ppt, 600 mM). This means that every kilogram (roughly one liter by volume) of seawater has approximately 35 grams (1.2 oz) of dissolved salts (predominantly sodium (Na +

  4. Sodium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hydroxide

    2 Al + 2 NaOH + 2 H 2 O → 2 NaAlO 2 + 3 H 2 Sodium aluminate is an inorganic chemical that is used as an effective source of aluminium hydroxide for many industrial and technical applications. Pure sodium aluminate (anhydrous) is a white crystalline solid having a formula variously given as NaAlO 2 , Na 3 AlO 3 , Na[Al(OH) 4 ] , Na 2 O·Al 2 ...

    So whilst the imperial gallon, quart, pint and gill are about 20% larger than are their US fluid measure counterparts, the fluid ounce is about 4% smaller. [ e ] One avoirdupois ounce of water has an approximate volume of one imperial fluid ounce at 62 °F (16.67 °C).

  6. Heavy water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_water

    H in its hydrogen, is actually about 50% HDO and 25% each of H 2 O and D 2 O, in dynamic equilibrium. In normal water, about 1 molecule in 3,200 is HDO (one hydrogen in 6,400 is 2 H), and heavy water molecules (D 2 O) only occur in a proportion of about 1 molecule in 41 million (i.e. one in 6,400 2) [citation needed]. Thus semiheavy water ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_water

    In the United States, the Adequate Intake for total water, based on median intakes, is 4.0 litres (141 imp fl oz; 135 US fl oz) per day for males older than 18, and 3.0 litres (106 imp fl oz; 101 US fl oz) per day for females over 18; it assumes about 80% from drink and 20% from food. [14]

  8. Baker percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker_percentage

    In a recipe, the baker's percentage for water is referred to as the "hydration"; it is indicative of the stickiness of the dough and the "crumb" of the bread. Lower hydration rates (e.g., 50–57%) are typical for bagels and pretzels, and medium hydration levels (58–65%) are typical for breads and rolls. [25]

  9. Ammonia solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution

    Ammonia solution, also known as ammonia water, ammonium hydroxide, ammoniacal liquor, ammonia liquor, aqua ammonia, aqueous ammonia, or (inaccurately) ammonia, is a solution of ammonia in water. It can be denoted by the symbols NH 3 (aq). Although the name ammonium hydroxide suggests a salt with the composition [NH+. 4] [OH−.
