  2. Equivalent weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_weight

    The equivalent weight of an element is the mass of a mole of the element divided by the element's usual valence. That is, in grams, the atomic weight of the element divided by the usual valence. [ 2] For example, the equivalent weight of oxygen is 16.0/2 = 8.0 grams. For acid–base reactions, the equivalent weight of an acid or base is the ...

  3. Mole (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_(unit)

    The mole (symbol mol) is a unit of measurement, the base unit in the International System of Units (SI) for amount of substance, a quantity proportional to the number of elementary entities of a substance. One mole contains exactly 6.022 140 76 × 1023 elementary entities (approximately 602 sextillion or 602 billion times a trillion), which can ...

  4. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    The tonne (t) is an SI-compatible unit of mass equal to a megagram ( Mg ), or 10 3 kg. The unit is in common use for masses above about 10 3 kg and is often used with SI prefixes. For example, a gigagram ( Gg) or 10 9 g is 10 3 tonnes, commonly called a kilotonne .

  5. Dyne - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyne

    An equivalent definition of the dyne is "that force which, acting for one second, will produce a change of velocity of one centimetre per second in a mass of one gram". [ 3 ] One dyne is equal to 10 micronewtons, 10 −5 N or to 10 nsn (nano sthenes ) in the old metre–tonne–second system of units .

    1 Kancha = 5 Siki. 1 Chhataank = 4 Kancha. 1 Chhataank = 5 Bhari. 1 Adh-pav = 2 Chhatank = 1/8 Seer. 1 Pav = 2 Adh-pav = ¼ Seer (Pav means ¼) The unit pav is still used to this date however, it has been modified to "a fourth of a kilogram". 1 Adher = 2 Pav = ½ Seer. In Hindi ½ Seer = Adha (½) Seer, or Adher.

  7. Dram (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dram_(unit)

    Dram (unit) The dram (alternative British spelling drachm; apothecary symbol ʒ or ℨ; [ a] abbreviated dr) [ 4][ 5]: C-6–C-7 [ 6] is a unit of mass in the avoirdupois system, and both a unit of mass and a unit of volume in the apothecaries' system. [ 5] It was originally both a coin and a weight in ancient Greece. [ 7]

  8. Stoichiometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoichiometry

    Stoichiometry. A stoichiometric diagram of the combustion reaction of methane. Stoichiometry ( / ˌstɔɪkiˈɒmɪtri /) is the relationship between the weights of reactants and products before, during, and following chemical reactions . Stoichiometry is founded on the law of conservation of mass where the total mass of the reactants equals the ...

  9. Joule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule

    The joule (pronounced / ˈdʒuːl /, JOOL or / ˈdʒaʊl / JOWL; symbol: J) is the unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). [ 1] It is equal to the amount of work done when a force of one newton displaces a mass through a distance of one metre in the direction of that force. It is also the energy dissipated as heat when an ...
