  2. Mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass

    If a first body of mass m A is placed at a distance r (center of mass to center of mass) from a second body of mass m B, each body is subject to an attractive force F g = Gm A m B /r 2, where G = 6.67 × 10 −11 N⋅kg −2 ⋅m 2 is the "universal gravitational constant". This is sometimes referred to as gravitational mass.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Center of mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_mass

    Let the percentage of the total mass divided between these two particles vary from 100% P 1 and 0% P 2 through 50% P 1 and 50% P 2 to 0% P 1 and 100% P 2, then the center of mass R moves along the line from P 1 to P 2. The percentages of mass at each point can be viewed as projective coordinates of the point R on this line, and are termed ...

  5. Equivalent weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_weight

    It is necessary to calculate the mass of a solid acid which will react with about 20 cm 3 of this solution (for a titration using a 25 cm 3 burette): suitable solid acids include oxalic acid dihydrate, potassium hydrogen phthalate and potassium hydrogen iodate. The equivalent weights of the three acids 63.04 g, 204.23 g and 389.92 g ...

  6. Molar mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass

    In chemistry, the molar mass (M) (sometimes called molecular weight or formula weight, but see related quantities for usage) of a chemical compound is defined as the ratio between the mass and the amount of substance (measured in moles) of any sample of the compound. [1] The molar mass is a bulk, not molecular, property of a substance.

  7. Reduced mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_mass

    In physics, reduced mass is a measure of the effective inertial mass of a system with two or more particles when the particles are interacting with each other. Reduced mass allows the two-body problem to be solved as if it were a one-body problem. Note, however, that the mass determining the gravitational force is not reduced.

  8. Effective mass (solid-state physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_mass_(solid...

    (This effective mass corresponds to the density of states effective mass, described later.) For the per-valley density of states and per-valley carrier density, the degeneracy factor is left out. For the purposes of calculating conductivity as in the Drude model, via the harmonic mean

  9. Mass-to-charge ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-to-charge_ratio

    The mass-to-charge ratio (m/Q) is a physical quantity relating the mass (quantity of matter) and the electric charge of a given particle, expressed in units of kilograms per coulomb (kg/C). It is most widely used in the electrodynamics of charged particles , e.g. in electron optics and ion optics .
