  3. Standard atomic weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_atomic_weight

    In 2015, the atomic weight of ytterbium was updated. [17] Per 2017, 14 atomic weights were changed, including argon changing from single number to interval value. [18] [19] The value published can have an uncertainty, like for neon: 20.1797(6), or can be an interval, like for boron: [10.806, 10.821].

  4. Lifting gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_gas

    Hydrogen, being the lightest existing gas (7% the density of air, 0.08988 g/L at STP), seems to be the most appropriate gas for lifting.It can be easily produced in large quantities, for example with the water-gas shift reaction or electrolysis, but hydrogen has several disadvantages:

  5. Gas composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_composition

    The Gas composition of any gas can be characterised by listing the pure substances it contains, and stating for each substance its proportion of the gas mixture's molecule count.Nitrogen N 2 78.084 Oxygen O 2 20.9476 Argon Ar 0.934 Carbon Dioxide CO 2 0.0314

  6. Dalton (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalton_(unit)

    Two distinct definitions came into use. Chemists choose to define the AMU as ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ of the average mass of an oxygen atom as found in nature; that is, the average of the masses of the known isotopes, weighted by their natural abundance. Physicists, on the other hand, defined it as ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ of the mass of an atom of the isotope ...

  7. Oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen

    Oxygen gas is the second most common component of the Earth's atmosphere, taking up 20.8% of its volume and 23.1% of its mass (some 10 15 tonnes). [19] [70] [d] Earth is unusual among the planets of the Solar System in having such a high concentration of oxygen gas in its atmosphere: Mars (with 0.1% O 2 by volume) and Venus have much less. The O

  8. Isotopes of neon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_neon

    The abundances of the naturally occurring isotopes of neon. Neon (10 Ne) possesses three stable isotopes: 20 Ne, 21 Ne, and 22 Ne. In addition, 17 radioactive isotopes have been discovered, ranging from 15 Ne to 34 Ne, all short-lived. The longest-lived is 24 Ne with a half-life of 3.38(2) min. All others are under a minute, most under a second.

    For example, Paraffin has very large molecules and thus a high heat capacity per mole, but as a substance it does not have remarkable heat capacity in terms of volume, mass, or atom-mol (which is just 1.41 R per mole of atoms, or less than half of most solids, in terms of heat capacity per atom).
