  2. Law of multiple proportions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_multiple_proportions

    For example, if one tried to demonstrate it using the hydrocarbons decane (C 10 H 22) and undecane (C 11 H 24), one would find that 100 grams of carbon could react with 18.46 grams of hydrogen to produce decane or with 18.31 grams of hydrogen to produce undecane, for a ratio of hydrogen masses of 121:120, which is hardly a ratio of "small ...

  3. Dalton (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalton_(unit)

    The dalton or unified atomic mass unit (symbols: Da or u, respectively) is a unit of mass defined as ⁠ 1 / 12 ⁠ of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 in its nuclear and electronic ground state and at rest. [1] [2] It is a non-SI unit accepted for use with SI.

  4. Molecular mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_mass

    Units of daltons (Da) are often used. [1] Different molecules of the same compound may have different molecular masses because they contain different isotopes of an element. The derived quantity relative molecular mass is the unitless ratio of the mass of a molecule to the atomic mass constant (which is equal to one dalton). [2]

  5. Molar mass constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass_constant

    The mole and the atomic mass unit (dalton) were originally defined in the International System of Units (SI) in such a way that the constant was exactly 1 g/mol, which made the numerical value of the molar mass of a substance, in grams per mole, equal to the average mass of its constituent particles (atoms, molecules, or formula units) relative ...

  6. HAZMAT Class 5 Oxidizing agents and organic peroxides

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAZMAT_Class_5_Oxidizing...

    For materials containing more than 1.0 percent but not more than 7.0 percent hydrogen peroxide, the available oxygen content (O a) is not more than 0.5 percent, when determined using the equation: O a = 16x = where for a material containing k species of organic peroxides:

  7. Mole (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_(unit)

    Because a dalton, a unit commonly used to measure atomic mass, is exactly 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom, this definition of the mole entailed that the mass of one mole of a compound or element in grams was numerically equal to the average mass of one molecule or atom of the substance in daltons, and that the number of daltons in a gram ...

  8. Peroxide value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxide_value

    The peroxide value is defined as the amount of peroxide oxygen per 1 kilogram of fat or oil. Traditionally this was expressed in units of milliequivalents, although in SI units the appropriate option would be in millimoles per kilogram (N.B. 1 milliequivalents = 0.5 millimole; because 1 mEq of O2 =1 mmol/2 of O2 =0.5 mmol of O2, where 2 is valence).

  9. Hydrogen peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide

    Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 O 2.In its pure form, it is a very pale blue [5] liquid that is slightly more viscous than water.It is used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent, and antiseptic, usually as a dilute solution (3%–6% by weight) in water for consumer use and in higher concentrations for industrial use.
