  2. Number density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_density

    The number density (symbol: n or ρ N) is ... or one-dimensional linear number density. Population density is an example of areal number density. ... Water: 33.3679 ...

  3. Population density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_density

    Population density is the number of people per unit of area, usually transcribed as "per square kilometer" or square mile, and which may include or exclude, for example, areas of water or glaciers. Commonly this is calculated for a county, city, country, another territory or the entire world. The world's population is around 8,000,000,000 [3 ...

  4. Mulliken population analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulliken_population_analysis

    Mulliken population analysis. Mulliken charges arise from the Mulliken population analysis[1][2] and provide a means of estimating partial atomic charges from calculations carried out by the methods of computational chemistry, particularly those based on the linear combination of atomic orbitals molecular orbital method, and are routinely used ...

  5. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    Relative density ( ) or specific gravity ( ) is a dimensionless quantity, as it is the ratio of either densities or weights where is relative density, is the density of the substance being measured, and is the density of the reference. (By convention , the Greek letter rho, denotes density.) The reference material can be indicated using ...

  6. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

    Hydrostatic weighing. Hydrostatic weighing, also referred to as underwater weighing, hydrostatic body composition analysis and hydrodensitometry, is a technique for measuring the density of a living person's body. It is a direct application of Archimedes' principle, that an object displaces its own volume of water.

  7. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water is the chemical substance with chemical formula H 2 O; one molecule of water has two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to a single oxygen atom. [25] Water is a tasteless, odorless liquid at ambient temperature and pressure. Liquid water has weak absorption bands at wavelengths of around 750 nm which cause it to appear to have a blue color. [3]

  8. Water distribution on Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_distribution_on_Earth

    The total volume of water on Earth is estimated at 1.386 billion km 3 (333 million cubic miles), with 97.5% being salt water and 2.5% being freshwater. Of the freshwater, only 0.3% is in liquid form on the surface. [2][3][4] Because the oceans that cover roughly 70.8% of the area of Earth reflect blue light, Earth appears blue from space, and ...

  9. Distance sampling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_sampling

    Distance sampling is a widely used group of closely related methods for estimating the density and/or abundance of populations. The main methods are based on line transects or point transects. [1][2] In this method of sampling, the data collected are the distances of the objects being surveyed from these randomly placed lines or points, and the ...
