  2. Pilling–Bedworth ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilling–Bedworth_ratio

    Scheme of the oxide structure and the Pilling–Bedworth ratio. On the basis of measurements, the following connection can be shown: R PB < 1: the oxide coating layer is too thin, likely broken and provides no protective effect (for example magnesium) R PB > 2: the oxide coating chips off and provides no protective effect (example iron)

  3. Lead–lead dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead–lead_dating

    In this diagram the 204 Pb/ 206 Pb ratio (the reciprocal of the normal ratio) is plotted on the x-axis, so that a point on the y axis (zero 204 Pb/ 206 Pb) would have infinitely radiogenic Pb. The ratio plotted on this axis is the 207 Pb/ 206 Pb ratio, corresponding to the slope of a normal Pb/Pb isochron, which yields the age. The most ...

  4. Isotopes of lead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_lead

    Lead (82 Pb) has four observationally stable isotopes: 204 Pb, 206 Pb, 207 Pb, 208 Pb. Lead-204 is entirely a primordial nuclide and is not a radiogenic nuclide.The three isotopes lead-206, lead-207, and lead-208 represent the ends of three decay chains: the uranium series (or radium series), the actinium series, and the thorium series, respectively; a fourth decay chain, the neptunium series ...

  5. Partition coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_coefficient

    The partition coefficient between n-Octanol and water is known as the n-octanol-water partition coefficient, or K ow. [62] It is also frequently referred to by the symbol P, especially in the English literature. It is also known as n-octanol-water partition ratio. [63] [64] [65]

  6. Total dissolved solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dissolved_solids

    14] Water can be classified by the level of total dissolved solids (TDS) in the water: Fresh water: TDS is less than 1,000 ppm. Brackish water: TDS = 1,000 to 10,000 ppm. Saline water: TDS = 10,000 to 35,000 ppm. Hypersaline: TDS greater than 35,000 ppm. Drinking water generally has a TDS below 500 ppm.

  7. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

  8. Bowen ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowen_ratio

    The Bowen ratio is calculated by the equation: =, where is sensible heating and is latent heating. In this context, when the magnitude of is less than one, a greater proportion of the available energy at the surface is passed to the atmosphere as latent heat than as sensible heat, and the converse is true for values of greater than one.

  9. Hydrophobicity scales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobicity_scales

    The ratio gives the relative hydrophobicity scale for individual amino acids. Computation was trained on high resolution protein crystal structures. This quantitative descriptor for microenvironment was derived from the octanol-water partition coefficient, (known as Rekker's Fragmental Constants) widely used for pharmacophores. This scale well ...
