  2. Mass distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_distribution

    A surface mass on a surface given by the equation f (x, y, z) = 0 may be represented by a density distribution g(x, y, z) δ(f (x, y, z)), where / | | is the mass per unit area. The mathematical modelling can be done by potential theory , by numerical methods (e.g. a great number of mass points ), or by theoretical equilibrium figures.

  3. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.

  4. Dispersity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersity

    To achieve any high molecular weight polymer, the fractional conversion must exceed 0.99, and the dispersity of this reaction mechanism in a batch or PFR is 2.0. Running a step-growth polymerization in a CSTR will allow some polymer chains out of the reactor before achieving high molecular weight, while others stay in the reactor for a long ...

  5. Pound (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_(mass)

    The pound or pound-mass is a unit of mass used in both the British imperial and United States customary systems of measurement.Various definitions have been used; the most common today is the international avoirdupois pound, which is legally defined as exactly 0.453 592 37 kilograms, and which is divided into 16 avoirdupois ounces.

  6. Nucleic acid quantitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_quantitation

    The "A260 unit" is used as a quantity measure for nucleic acids. One A260 unit is the amount of nucleic acid contained in 1 mL and producing an OD of 1. The same conversion factors apply, and therefore, in such contexts: 1 A260 unit dsDNA = 50 μg 1 A260 unit ssDNA = 33 μg 1 A260 unit ssRNA = 40 μg

  7. Genome size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genome_size

    Genome size ranges (in base pairs) of various life forms. Genome size is the total amount of DNA contained within one copy of a single complete genome.It is typically measured in terms of mass in picograms (trillionths or 10 −12 of a gram, abbreviated pg) or less frequently in daltons, or as the total number of nucleotide base pairs, usually in megabases (millions of base pairs, abbreviated ...

  8. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    For example, the conversion factor between a mass fraction of 1 ppb and a mole fraction of 1 ppb is about 4.7 for the greenhouse gas CFC-11 in air (Molar mass of CFC-11 / Mean molar mass of air = 137.368 / 28.97 = 4.74). For volume fraction, the suffix "V" or "v" is sometimes appended to the parts-per notation (e.g. ppmV, ppbv, pptv).

  9. Nano- - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nano-

    The term combines the SI prefix nano-indicating a 1 billionth submultiple of an SI unit (e.g. nanogram, nanometre, etc.) and second, the primary unit of time in the SI. A nanosecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 31.69 years. A nanosecond is equal to 1000 picoseconds or ⁠ 1 / 1000 ⁠ microsecond.
