  2. Hecto- - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecto-

    hectogram (hg), in agronomy, for quantities of animal feed (hectogram/animal) and for measures of agricultural productivity (hectogram/hectare); also used in Italy abbreviated as etto, and in Canada, New Zealand and Sweden simply as 100 g, for retail sale of cold cuts and meat.

  3. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

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

    However, the names of all SI mass units are based on gram, rather than on kilogram; thus 10 3 kg is a megagram (10 6 g), not a *kilokilogram. 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.

    Mercury is a chemical element; it has symbol Hg and atomic number 80. It is also known as quicksilver and was formerly named hydrargyrum ( / h aɪ ˈ d r ɑːr dʒ ər ə m / hy- DRAR -jər-əm ) from the Greek words hydor ' water ' and argyros ' silver ' , from which its chemical symbol is derived.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_mercury

    The longest-lived radioisotopes are 194 Hg with a half-life of 444 years, and 203 Hg with a half-life of 46.612 days. Most of the remaining 40 radioisotopes have half-lives that are less than a day. 199 Hg and 201 Hg are the most often studied NMR -active nuclei, having spin quantum numbers of 1/2 and 3/2 respectively.

  7. List of viscosities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_viscosities

    For gas, the dynamic viscosity is usually in the range of 10 to 20 microPascal-seconds, or 0.01 to 0.02 centiPoise. The density is usually on the order of 0.5 to 5 kg/m^3. Consequently, its kinematic viscosity is around 2 to 40 centiStokes.

  8. Inch of mercury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_mercury

    Inch of mercury (inHg and ″Hg) is a non-SI unit of measurement for pressure. It is used for barometric pressure in weather reports , refrigeration and aviation in the United States . It is the pressure exerted by a column of mercury 1 inch (25.4 mm) in height at the standard acceleration of gravity .
