  2. Molar heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_heat_capacity

    The value of c V,m is always less than the value of c P,m. This difference is particularly notable in gases where values under constant pressure are typically 30% to 66.7% greater than those at constant volume. [4] All methods for the measurement of specific heat apply to molar heat capacity as well.

  3. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    For a gas that is a mixture of two or more pure gases (air or natural gas, for example), the gas composition must be known before compressibility can be calculated. Alternatively, the compressibility factor for specific gases can be read from generalized compressibility charts [ 1 ] that plot Z {\displaystyle Z} as a function of pressure at ...

  4. Chandrasekhar limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandrasekhar_limit

    A strong indication of the reliability of Chandrasekhar's formula is that the absolute magnitudes of supernovae of Type Ia are all approximately the same; at maximum luminosity, M V is approximately −19.3, with a standard deviation of no more than 0.3. [46]: eq. (1) A 1-sigma interval therefore represents a factor of less than 2 in luminosity ...

    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).

  6. Iodine-129 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine-129

    129 I is one of the seven long-lived fission products that are produced in significant amounts. Its yield is 0.706% per fission of 235 U. [7] Larger proportions of other iodine isotopes such as 131 I are produced, but because these all have short half-lives, iodine in cooled spent nuclear fuel consists of about 5/6 129 I and 1/6 the only stable iodine isotope, 127 I.

  7. Orders of magnitude (energy) - Wikipedia

  9. Moment magnitude scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_magnitude_scale

    The moment magnitude scale (MMS; denoted explicitly with M or M w or Mwg, and generally implied with use of a single M for magnitude [1]) is a measure of an earthquake's magnitude ("size" or strength) based on its seismic moment. M w was defined in a 1979 paper by Thomas C. Hanks and Hiroo Kanamori.
