  2. Scuba gas planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuba_gas_planning

    Helium: 0.3 × 0.1786 kg/m 3 = 0.05358 Nitrogen: 0.5 × 1.251 kg/m 3 = 0.6255 Mixture: 0.96488 kg/m 3. If this is to be used at 50 msw, absolute pressure can be taken as 6 bar, and density will be 6 × 0.96488 = 5.78 kg/m 3 This is less than the upper limit of 6.2 kg/m 3 recommended by Anthony and Mitchell, but more than their preferred limit ...

    This is a list of prices of chemical ... Per-kilogram prices of some synthetic radioisotopes range to trillions of dollars. ... 5.2 (1.4404 × 10 17 kg) 307: 2630: 2019:

  4. Gas blending for scuba diving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_blending_for_scuba_diving

    All helium, and some of the oxygen is provided by decanting or boosting from bulk cylinders. The amount of helium that must be decanted is very simple to calculate: Multiply the desired gas fraction of helium (F He) by the total filling pressure (P tot) to get partial pressure of helium (P He). In the case of the Tx 20/40, in a 230 bar cylinder ...

  5. 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

  6. Trimix (breathing gas) - Wikipedia

    [1] [2] [12] [13] A maximum oxygen partial pressure of 1.4 bar for the active sectors of the dive, and 1.6 bar for decompression stops is recommended by several recreational and technical diving certification agencies for open circuit, [14] and 1.2 bar or 1.3 bar as maximum for the active sectors of a dive on closed-circuit rebreather ...

  7. Helium storage and conservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium_storage_and...

    To ensure that the revenue from future sales would amortize the cost, the Secretary of the Interior raised the price of high purity helium from $12 per thousand cubic feet to $35. [1] [4] This price jump was an incentive for private companies to enter the market and sell helium at lower prices. [1] [3] [4] By 1970, it also became evident that ...

  8. Liquid helium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_helium

    Liquid helium is a physical state of helium at very low temperatures at standard atmospheric pressures.Liquid helium may show superfluidity.. At standard pressure, the chemical element helium exists in a liquid form only at the extremely low temperature of −269 °C (−452.20 °F; 4.15 K).

  9. Proton–proton chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton–proton_chain

    In p–p I, helium-4 is produced by fusing two helium-3 nuclei; the p–p II and p–p III branches fuse 3 He with pre-existing 4 He to form beryllium-7, which undergoes further reactions to produce two helium-4 nuclei. About 99% of the energy output of the sun comes from the various p–p chains, with the other 1% coming from the CNO cycle.
