  2. Coefficient of variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_variation

    The coefficient of variation (CV) is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean , =. [1] It shows the extent of variability in relation to the mean of the population. The coefficient of variation should be computed only for data measured on scales that have a meaningful zero ( ratio scale ) and hence allow relative comparison of ...

  3. Cyclic voltammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_voltammetry

    Cyclic voltammetry (CV) has become an important and widely used electroanalytical technique in many areas of chemistry. It is often used to study a variety of redox processes, to determine the stability of reaction products, the presence of intermediates in redox reactions, [ 10 ] electron transfer kinetics, [ 11 ] and the reversibility of a ...

  4. Activity coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_coefficient

    In thermodynamics, an activity coefficient is a factor used to account for deviation of a mixture of chemical substances from ideal behaviour. [1] In an ideal mixture, the microscopic interactions between each pair of chemical species are the same (or macroscopically equivalent, the enthalpy change of solution and volume variation in mixing is zero) and, as a result, properties of the mixtures ...

  5. Science fair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_fair

    A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.

  6. Volume fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_fraction

    It is the same concept as volume percent (vol%) except that the latter is expressed with a denominator of 100, e.g., 18%. The volume fraction coincides with the volume concentration in ideal solutions where the volumes of the constituents are additive (the volume of the solution is equal to the sum of the volumes of its ingredients).

  7. Thermodynamic activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_activity

    The relative activity of a species i, denoted a i, is defined [4] [5] as: = where μ i is the (molar) chemical potential of the species i under the conditions of interest, μ o i is the (molar) chemical potential of that species under some defined set of standard conditions, R is the gas constant, T is the thermodynamic temperature and e is the exponential constant.

  8. Equivalent concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_concentration

    Normality is defined as the number of gram or mole equivalents of solute present in one liter of solution.The SI unit of normality is equivalents per liter (Eq/L). = where N is normality, m sol is the mass of solute in grams, EW sol is the equivalent weight of solute, and V soln is the volume of the entire solution in liters.

  9. CM chondrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CM_chondrite

    The soluble fraction would yield to the chemistry techniques of the mid-20th century, [100] [101] giving paraffin, naphthene and aromatics, with other contributions. [ 102 ] The IOM is, however, the clear majority of the organic component; in 1963, Briggs and Mamikunian could only give it as "very high molecular weight".
