  2. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    Conversions between units in the metric system are defined by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams) and are thus not listed in this article. Exceptions are made if the unit is commonly known by another name (for example, 1 micron = 10 −6 metre).

    the volume of a cube of side length one decimetre (0.1 m) equal to a litre 1 dm 3 = 0.001 m 3 = 1 L (also known as DCM (=Deci Cubic Meter) in Rubber compound processing) Cubic centimetre [5] the volume of a cube of side length one centimetre (0.01 m) equal to a millilitre 1 cm 3 = 0.000 001 m 3 = 10 −6 m 3 = 1 mL Cubic millimetre

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    Last, multiply the original expression of the physical value by the fraction, called a conversion factor, to obtain the same physical value expressed in terms of a different unit. Note: since valid conversion factors are dimensionless and have a numerical value of one , multiplying any physical quantity by such a conversion factor (which is 1 ...

  6. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    When applying prefixes to units of volume, which are expressed in units of length cubed, the cube operators are applied to the unit of length including the prefix. An example of converting cubic centimetre to cubic metre is: 2.3 cm 3 = 2.3 (cm) 3 = 2.3 (0.01 m) 3 = 0.0000023 m 3 (five zeros). [18]: 143

  7. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    Note that the especially high molar values, as for paraffin, gasoline, water and ammonia, result from calculating specific heats in terms of moles of molecules. If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol ...

  8. Cubic centimetre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_centimetre

    0.06102374 in 3 Some SI units of volume to scale and approximate corresponding mass of water A cubic centimetre (or cubic centimeter in US English ) (SI unit symbol: cm 3 ; non-SI abbreviations: cc and ccm ) is a commonly used unit of volume that corresponds to the volume of a cube that measures 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm.

  9. Volumetric heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_heat_capacity

    In monatomic gases (like argon) at room temperature and constant volume, volumetric heat capacities are all very close to 0.5 kJ⋅K −1 ⋅m −3, which is the same as the theoretical value of ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ RT per kelvin per mole of gas molecules (where R is the gas constant and T is temperature). As noted, the much lower values for gas heat ...
