As defined by the European Commission regulation No. 2568/91 and subsequent amendments, [1] the highest quality olive oil (extra-virgin olive oil) must feature a free acidity lower than 0.8%. Virgin olive oil is characterized by acidity between 0.8% and 2%, while lampante olive oil (a low quality oil that is not edible) features a free acidity ...
As of 2020 [update], the most expensive non- synthetic element by both mass and volume is rhodium. It is followed by caesium, iridium and palladium by mass and iridium, gold and platinum by volume. Carbon in the form of diamond can be more expensive than rhodium. Per-kilogram prices of some synthetic radioisotopes range to trillions of dollars.
In solutions, mass concentration is commonly encountered as the ratio of mass/ [volume solution], or m/v. In water solutions containing relatively small quantities of dissolved solute (as in biology), such figures may be "percentivized" by multiplying by 100 a ratio of grams solute per mL solution. The result is given as "mass/volume percentage".
One part per hundred is generally represented by the percent sign (%) and denotes one part per 100 (10 2) parts, and a value of 10 −2. This is equivalent to about fourteen minutes out of one day. One part per thousand should generally be spelled out in full and not as "ppt" (which is usually understood to represent "parts per trillion").
The data are given in kilograms of oil equivalent per year, and gigajoules per year, and in watts, as average equivalent power. Notes on conversions. 1 kg of oil equivalent (kgoe) = 11.63 kWh or 1 kWh = 0.08598 kgoe [2] 1000 kgoe = 42 GJ; 1 GJ/a = 31.7 W average; 1 W average = 8.76 kWh per year (365 × 24 Wh per year)
Petroleum[ a ] is a naturally occurring yellowish-black liquid mixture. It consists mainly of hydrocarbons, [ 1 ] and is found in geological formations. The term petroleum refers both to naturally occurring unprocessed crude oil, as well as to petroleum products that consist of refined crude oil.
12.69 is the conversion factor from mEq sodium thiosulfate to grams of iodine (the molecular weight of iodine is 126.9 g/mol); W is the weight of the sample in grams. The determination of IV according to Wijs is the official method currently accepted by international standards such as DIN 53241-1:1995-05, AOCS Method Cd 1-25, EN 14111 and ISO ...
A variety of cooking oils on a store shelf. Cooking oil (also known as edible oil) is a plant or animal liquid fat used in frying, baking, and other types of cooking.Oil allows higher cooking temperatures than water, making cooking faster and more flavorful, while likewise distributing heat, reducing burning and uneven cooking.
