  2. Lifting gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_gas

    Mars has a very thin atmosphere – the pressure is only 1 ⁄ 160 of earth atmospheric pressure – so a huge balloon would be needed even for a tiny lifting effect. Overcoming the weight of such a balloon would be difficult, but several proposals to explore Mars with balloons have been made. [16] Venus has a CO 2 atmosphere.

  4. Noble gas compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas_compound

    In chemistry, noble gas compounds are chemical compounds that include an element from the noble gases, group 8 or 18 of the periodic table. Although the noble gases are generally unreactive elements, many such compounds have been observed, particularly involving the element xenon .

  5. 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.

  6. Prices of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prices_of_chemical_elements

    Hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and chlorine are cheapest by volume at atmospheric pressure. When there is no public data on the element in its pure form, price of a compound is used, per mass of element contained. This implicitly puts the value of compounds' other constituents, and the cost of extraction of the element, at zero.

  7. Equivalent weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_weight

    However, one gram of hydrogen reacts with 8 grams of oxygen to give water or with 35.5 grams of chlorine to give hydrogen chloride: hence 8 grams of oxygen and 35.5 grams of chlorine can be taken to be equivalent to one gram of hydrogen for the measurement of equivalent weights. This system can be extended further through different acids and bases.

  8. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    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).

  9. 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].
