  2. Hydraulic conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_conductivity

    a table showing ranges of values of hydraulic conductivity and permeability for various geological materials. Values are for typical fresh groundwater conditions — using standard values of viscosity and specific gravity for water at 20 °C and 1 atm. See the similar table derived from the same source for intrinsic permeability values. [13]

  3. Carbon monoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_monoxide

    Carbon monoxide (chemical formula CO) is a poisonous, flammable gas that is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and slightly less dense than air.Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom connected by a triple bond.

  4. Oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen

    It is a member of the chalcogen group in the periodic table, a highly reactive nonmetal, and a potent oxidizing agent that readily forms oxides with most elements as well as with other compounds. Oxygen is the most abundant element in Earth's crust , and the third-most abundant element in the universe after hydrogen and helium .

  5. Iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron

    For U.S. food and dietary supplement labeling purposes, the amount in a serving is expressed as a percent of Daily Value (%DV). For iron labeling purposes, 100% of the Daily Value was 18 mg, and as of May 27, 2016 remained unchanged at 18 mg. [173] [174] A table of the old and new adult daily values is provided at Reference Daily Intake.

  6. Chronology of the universe - Wikipedia

    10 s ~ 370 ka: 10 9 K ~ 4000 K (100 keV ~ 0.4 eV) The universe consists of a plasma of nuclei, electrons, and photons; temperature is too low to create electron-positron pairs (or any other pairs of massive particles), but too high for the binding of electrons to nuclei. Recombination: 18 ka ~ 370 ka 6000 ~ 1100 4000 K (0.4 eV)

  7. Oral rehydration therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_rehydration_therapy

    Oral rehydration therapy (ORT) is a type of fluid replacement used to prevent and treat dehydration, especially due to diarrhea. [1] It involves drinking water with modest amounts of sugar and salts, specifically sodium and potassium. [1]

  8. Microstrip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microstrip

    To a first approximation, an abrupt un-mitred bend behaves as a shunt capacitance placed between the ground plane and the bend in the strip. Mitring the bend reduces the area of metallization, and so removes the excess capacitance. The percentage mitre is the cut-away fraction of the diagonal between the inner and outer corners of the un-mitred ...

  9. Letter frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency

    The California Job Case was a compartmentalized box for printing in the 19th century, sizes corresponding to the commonality of letters. The frequency of letters in text has been studied for use in cryptanalysis, and frequency analysis in particular, dating back to the Arab mathematician al-Kindi (c. AD 801–873 ), who formally developed the method (the ciphers breakable by this technique go ...
