  2. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    The density of air or atmospheric density, ... Pure liquid water is 1,000 kg/m 3 ... The theoretical value for water vapor is 19.6, but due to vapor condensation the ...

  3. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water (H 2 O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue.It is by far the most studied chemical compound [20] and is described as the "universal solvent" [21] and the "solvent of life". [22]

  4. Saponification value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saponification_value

    The higher the saponification value, the lower the fatty acids average length, the lighter the mean molecular weight of triglycerides and vice versa. Practically, fats or oils with high saponification value (such as coconut and palm oil) are more suitable for soap making.

  5. Saponification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saponification

    Saponification is a process of cleaving esters into carboxylate salts and alcohols by the action of aqueous alkali. Typically aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions are used. [1] [2] It is an important type of alkaline hydrolysis. When the carboxylate is long chain, its salt is called a soap. The saponification of ethyl acetate gives sodium acetate ...

  6. Water (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_(data_page)

    The saturated vapor pressure over water in the temperature range of −100 °C to −50 °C is only extrapolated [Translator's note: Supercooled liquid water is not known to exist below −42 °C]. The values have various units (Pa, hPa or bar), which must be considered when reading them.

  7. Liquid water path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_water_path

    Typical values of liquid water path in marine stratocumulus can be of the order of 20-80 g/m 2. [3] The liquid water path also contributes to important cloud properties. As the value of the liquid water path increases, so does the albedo of the cloud. This increase in albedo is seen most quickly at the lower end of the liquid water path ...

  8. Saturation vapor density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_vapor_density

    The saturation vapor density (SVD) is the maximum density of water vapor in air at a given temperature. [1] The concept is related to saturation vapor pressure (SVP). It can be used to calculate exact quantity of water vapor in the air from a relative humidity (RH = % local air humidity measured / local total air humidity possible ) Given an RH percentage, the density of water in the air is ...

  9. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    This device enables a liquid's density to be measured accurately by reference to an appropriate working fluid, such as water or mercury, using an analytical balance. [citation needed] If the flask is weighed empty, full of water, and full of a liquid whose relative density is desired, the relative density of the liquid can easily be calculated.
