  2. Ammonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia

    The hazards of ammonia solutions depend on the concentration: 'dilute' ammonia solutions are usually 5–10% by weight (< 5.62 mol/L); 'concentrated' solutions are usually prepared at >25% by weight. A 25% (by weight) solution has a density of 0.907 g/cm 3 , and a solution that has a lower density will be more concentrated.

  3. Horton sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horton_Sphere

    A Horton sphere (sometimes spelled Hortonsphere), also referred to as a spherical tank or simply sphere, is a spherical pressure vessel, which is used for industrial-scale storage of liquefied gases. Example of materials that can be stored in Horton spheres are liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), and anhydrous ammonia. [1]

  4. Propane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane

    The density of liquid propane at 25 °C (77 °F) is 0.493 g/cm 3, which is equivalent to 4.11 pounds per U.S. liquid gallon or 493 g/L. Propane expands at 1.5% per 10 °F. Thus, liquid propane has a density of approximately 4.2 pounds per gallon (504 g/L) at 60 °F (15.6 °C). [30]

  5. Ammonia solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution

    Household ammonia ranges in concentration by weight from 5% to 10% ammonia. [9] Because aqueous ammonia is a gas dissolved in water, as the water evaporates from a surface, the gas evaporates also, leaving the surface streak-free. Its most common uses are to clean glass [10], porcelain, and stainless steel. It is good at removing grease and is ...

    b = 0.08445 liter per mole Density of liquid and gas Propane ... Propane does not have health effects other than the danger of frostbite or asphyxiation.

  7. Lifting gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_gas

    The amount of mass that can be lifted by hydrogen in air per unit volume at sea level, equal to the density difference between hydrogen and air, is: (1.292 - 0.090) kg/m 3 = 1.202 kg/m 3. and the buoyant force for one m 3 of hydrogen in air at sea level is: 1 m 3 × 1.202 kg/m 3 × 9.8 N/kg= 11.8 N

  8. Tank car - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_car

    This car is 98 feet (29.87 m) long, weighs 175,000 lb (79,400 kg) empty and rides on four two-axle trucks for weight distribution. It transported diverse substances, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and anhydrous ammonia.

  9. Jet fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_fuel

    The differences between Jet A and Jet A-1 are twofold. The primary difference is the lower freezing point of Jet A-1 fuel: [7] Jet A's is −40 °C (−40 °F) Jet A-1's is −47 °C (−53 °F) The other difference is the mandatory addition of an antistatic additive to Jet A-1 fuel.
