  2. Francium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francium

    Francium is a chemical element; it has symbol Fr and atomic number 87. It is extremely radioactive; its most stable isotope, francium-223 (originally called actinium K after the natural decay chain in which it appears), has a half-life of only 22 minutes.

  3. Abundance of the chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abundance_of_the_chemical...

    The abundance of the chemical elements is a measure of the occurrences of the chemical elements relative to all other elements in a given environment. Abundance is measured in one of three ways: by mass fraction (in commercial contexts often called weight fraction), by mole fraction (fraction of atoms by numerical count, or sometimes fraction of molecules in gases), or by volume fraction.

  4. Cobalt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt

    Loss of potency requires periodic replacement of the source in radiotherapy and is one reason why cobalt machines have been largely replaced by linear accelerators in modern radiation therapy. [175] Cobalt-57 (Co-57 or 57 Co) is a cobalt radioisotope most often used in medical tests, as a radiolabel for vitamin B 12 uptake, and for the ...

    The adjacent table shows the result for [Ca 2+] and [H +] (in the form of pH) as a function of ambient partial pressure of CO 2 (K sp = 4.47 × 10 −9 has been taken for the calculation). At atmospheric levels of ambient CO 2 the table indicates that the solution will be slightly alkaline with a maximum CaCO 3 solubility of 47 mg/L.

  6. List of mesons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mesons

    Mesons named with the letter "f" are scalar mesons (as opposed to a pseudo-scalar meson), and mesons named with the letter "a" are axial-vector mesons (as opposed to an ordinary vector meson) a.k.a. an isoscalar vector meson, while the letters "b" and "h" refer to axial-vector mesons with positive parity, negative C-parity, and quantum numbers I G of 1 + and 0 − respectively.

    Instead the formula that would fit some of the Bonales data is k ≈ 2.0526 - 0.0176TC and not k = -0.0176 + 2.0526T as they say on page S615 and also the values they posted for Alexiades and Solomon do not fit the other formula that they posted on table 1 on page S611 and the formula that would fit over there is k = 2.18 - 0.01365TC and not k ...

  8. Work function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_function

    The work function W for a given surface is defined by the difference [1] =, where −e is the charge of an electron, ϕ is the electrostatic potential in the vacuum nearby the surface, and E F is the Fermi level (electrochemical potential of electrons) inside the material.

  9. Metric prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_prefix

    A metric prefix is a unit prefix that precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a multiple or submultiple of the unit. All metric prefixes used today are decadic.Each prefix has a unique symbol that is prepended to any unit symbol.
