  2. 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+. ) and chloride (Cl−.

  3. Molar concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_concentration

    To create the solution, 11.6 g NaCl is placed in a volumetric flask, dissolved in some water, then followed by the addition of more water until the total volume reaches 100 mL. The density of water is approximately 1000 g/L and its molar mass is 18.02 g/mol (or 1/18.02 = 0.055 mol/g). Therefore, the molar concentration of water is

  4. Alcohol by volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_by_volume

    Alcohol by volume (abbreviated as alc/vol or ABV) is a standard measure of the volume of alcohol contained in a given volume of an alcoholic beverage, expressed as a volume percent. [1][2][3] It is defined as the number of millilitres (mL) of pure ethanol present in 100 mL (3.5 imp fl oz; 3.4 US fl oz) of solution at 20 °C (68 °F).

  5. Inch of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_water

    It is defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 inch in height at defined conditions. At a temperature of 4 °C (39.2 °F) pure water has its highest density (1000 kg/m 3). At that temperature and assuming the standard acceleration of gravity, 1 inAq is approximately 249.082 pascals (0.0361263 psi). [2]

  6. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    The quantity "1 ppm" can be used for a mass fraction if a water-borne pollutant is present at one-millionth of a gram per gram of sample solution. When working with aqueous solutions, it is common to assume that the density of water is 1.00 g/mL. Therefore, it is common to equate 1 kilogram of water with 1 L of water.

  7. Alcohol measurements - Wikipedia

    189.42 mL. 6.39 US fl oz. 6.66 imp oz. 1⁄3 of an Imperial pint. Short for Nipperkin. Strong ale and Barley wine were usually bottled in nips [3] Metric measurement glasses and containers usually round up to a metric half pint of 200 mL (7 imp oz). small glass (US) 236.59 mL. 8 US fl oz.

  8. Blood alcohol content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_alcohol_content

    In the US and many international publications, BAC levels are written as a percentage such as 0.08%, meaning that there is 0.08 g of alcohol for every 100 mL of blood. [1] [2] In different countries, the maximum permitted BAC when driving ranges from the limit of detection (zero tolerance) to 0.08%. [3] [2] BAC levels above 0.40% are ...

  9. Distilled water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distilled_water

    Distilled water is water that has been boiled into vapor and condensed back into liquid in a separate container. Impurities in the original water that do not boil below or near the boiling point of water remain in the original container. Thus, distilled water is a type of purified water.
