  2. Liquid oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_oxygen

    Liquid oxygen has a clear cyan color and is strongly paramagnetic: it can be suspended between the poles of a powerful horseshoe magnet. [2] Liquid oxygen has a density of 1.141 kg/L (1.141 g/ml), slightly denser than liquid water, and is cryogenic with a freezing point of 54.36 K (−218.79 °C; −361.82 °F) and a boiling point of 90.19 K (−182.96 °C; −297.33 °F) at 1 bar (14.5 psi).

  3. Poisson's ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson's_ratio

    Poisson's ratio of a material defines the ratio of transverse strain (x direction) to the axial strain (y direction)In materials science and solid mechanics, Poisson's ratio (symbol: ν ()) is a measure of the Poisson effect, the deformation (expansion or contraction) of a material in directions perpendicular to the specific direction of loading.

  4. Stoichiometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoichiometry

    Reaction stoichiometry describes the 2:1:2 ratio of hydrogen, oxygen, and water molecules in the above equation. The molar ratio allows for conversion between moles of one substance and moles of another. For example, in the reaction 2 CH 3 OH + 3 O 2 → 2 CO 2 + 4 H 2 O. the amount of water that will be produced by the combustion of 0.27 moles ...

  5. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Model of hydrogen bonds (1) between molecules of water. A single water molecule can participate in a maximum of four hydrogen bonds because it can accept two bonds using the lone pairs on oxygen and donate two hydrogen atoms. Other molecules like hydrogen fluoride, ammonia, and methanol can also form hydrogen bonds.

  6. Hydration number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydration_number

    One such approach counts the number of water molecules bound to the compound more strongly (by 13.3 kcal/mol or more) than they are bound to other water molecules. [3] Hydration number estimates are not limited to integer values (for instance, estimates for sodium include 4, 4.6, 5.3, 5.5, 5.6, 6, 6.5, and 8), with some of the spread of ...

  7. Amount of substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amount_of_substance

    Historically, the mole was defined as the amount of substance in 12 grams of the carbon-12 isotope.As a consequence, the mass of one mole of a chemical compound, in grams, is numerically equal (for all practical purposes) to the mass of one molecule or formula unit of the compound, in daltons, and the molar mass of an isotope in grams per mole is approximately equal to the mass number ...

  8. Law of multiple proportions - Wikipedia

    The other is a white powder which Dalton referred to as "the deutoxide of tin", which is 78.7% tin and 21.3% oxygen. Adjusting these figures, in the grey powder there is about 13.5 g of oxygen for every 100 g of tin, and in the white powder there is about 27 g of oxygen for every 100 g of tin. 13.5 and 27 form a ratio of 1:2.

  9. Chemical oxygen demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_demand

    FW = Formula weight of the oxidizable compound in the sample, RMO = Ratio of the # of moles of oxygen to # of moles of oxidizable compound in their reaction to CO 2, water, and ammonia. For example, if a sample has 500 Wppm (Weight Parts per Million) of phenol: C 6 H 5 OH + 7O 2 → 6CO 2 + 3H 2 O COD = (500/94)·7·16*2 = 1192 Wppm
