The following formulas can be used to calculate the volumes of solute (V solute) and solvent (V solvent) to be used: [1] = = where V total is the desired total volume, and F is the desired dilution factor number (the number in the position of F if expressed as "1/F dilution factor" or "xF dilution"). However, some solutions and mixtures take up ...
In industry, the various grades of sodium silicate are characterized by their SiO 2:Na 2 O weight ratio (which can be converted to molar ratio by multiplication with 1.032). The ratio can vary between 1:2 and 3.75:1. [1] Grades with ratio below 2.85:1 are termed alkaline. Those with a higher SiO 2:Na 2 O ratio are described as neutral.
The efficiency of conversion of ingested food to unit of body substance (ECI, also termed "growth efficiency") is an index measure of food fuel efficiency in animals. [1] The ECI is a rough scale of how much of the food ingested is converted into growth in the animal's mass. It can be used to compare the growth efficiency as measured by the ...
Being a ratio the FCR is dimensionless, that is, it is not affected by the units of measurement used to determine the FCR. [ 3 ] FCR a function of the animal's genetics [ 4 ] and age, [ 5 ] the quality and ingredients of the feed, [ 5 ] and the conditions in which the animal is kept, [ 1 ] [ 6 ] and storage and use of the feed by the farmworkers.
In fluid mechanics, the Rayleigh number (Ra, after Lord Rayleigh [1]) for a fluid is a dimensionless number associated with buoyancy-driven flow, also known as free (or natural) convection. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It characterises the fluid's flow regime: [ 5 ] a value in a certain lower range denotes laminar flow ; a value in a higher range ...
The Ni–Al alloy is prepared by dissolving nickel in molten aluminium followed by cooling ("quenching"). Depending on the Ni:Al ratio, quenching produces a number of different phases. During the quenching procedure, small amounts of a third metal, such as zinc or chromium, are added to enhance the activity of the resulting catalyst.
Portion of the structure of [Ni(SO 2) 6](AsF 6) 2, showing the dication and one of two AsF 6 − anions. [2]Sulfur dioxide forms complexes with many transition metals. Most numerous are complexes with metals in oxidation state 0 or +1.
