  2. Blood alcohol content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_alcohol_content

    Blood is denser than water and 1 mL of blood has a mass of approximately 1.055 grams, thus a mass-volume BAC of 1 g/L corresponds to a mass-mass BAC of 0.948 mg/g. Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Germany, and Switzerland use mass-mass concentrations in their laws, [ 6 ] but this distinction is often skipped over in public materials, [ 12 ...

  3. List of U.S. state beverages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._state_beverages

    This is a list of state beverages as designated by the various states of the United States. The first known usage of declaring a specific beverage a "state beverage" within the US began in 1965 with Ohio designating tomato juice as its official beverage.

    Municipal volumetric water measurements, including city water flow and cost per unit on a residential water bill, can either be measured in gallons, cubic feet, or cubic meters, with gallons being the most commonly used. Water bottles for personal use can have their capacity measured in fluid ounces or liters. For ounces, the measurements are ...

    Fluoride pollution from various industrial emissions can also contaminate water supplies. In a few areas of the United States, fluoride concentrations in water are much higher than normal, mostly from natural sources. In 1986, EPA established a maximum allowable concentration for fluoride in drinking water of 4 milligrams per liter (mg/L).

  6. Solubility table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_table

    The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/(100 mL)), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.

  7. Mass concentration (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_concentration_(chemistry)

    Thus 100 mL of water is equal to approximately 100 g. Therefore, a solution with 1 g of solute dissolved in final volume of 100 mL aqueous solution may also be considered 1% m/m (1 g solute in 99 g water). This approximation breaks down as the solute concentration is increased (for example, in water–NaCl mixtures). High solute concentrations ...

  8. Mixed liquor suspended solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_liquor_suspended_solids

    The units MLSS is primarily measured in milligram per litre (mg/L), but for activated sludge its mostly measured in gram per litre [g/L] which is equal to kilogram per cubic metre [kg/m3]. Mixed liquor is a combination of raw or unsettled wastewater or pre-settled wastewater and activated sludge within an aeration tank.

    Measuring spoons (metric) – 1 mL, 5 mL, 15 mL, 50 mL, 100 mL, 125 mL Measuring spoons (customary units). In recipes, quantities of ingredients may be specified by mass (commonly called weight), by volume, or by count.
