单词 concentration
释义
concentration

Statistics
  • See cyclic data.


Chemistry
  • The quantity of dissolved substance per unit quantity of a solution. Concentration is measured in various ways. The amount of substance dissolved per unit volume of the solution (symbol c) has units of mol dm−3 or mol l−1. It is now called amount concentration (formerly molarity). The mass concentration (symbol ρ‎) is the mass of solute per unit volume of solution. It has units of kg dm‎−3, g cm−3, etc. The molality is the amount of substance per unit mass of solvent, commonly given in units of mol kg−1. See also mole fraction.


Chemical Engineering
  • A quantitative measure of the relative amount of a component in a mixture. Concentration is often expressed as a mass and mole fraction. Other forms include volume fraction, molarity, molality, parts per million or billion on either a mass or volume basis, mass per unit volume, mass or weight per unit mass or weight, and activity.


Biology
  • The quantity of dissolved substance per unit quantity of solvent in a solution. Concentration is measured in various ways. The amount of substance dissolved per unit volume (symbol c) has units of mol dm−3 or mol l−1. It is now called ‘concentration’ (formerly molarity). Osmolarity is the concentration of osmotically active particles expressed as osmoles per litre of solution. The mass concentration (symbol π‎) is the mass of solute per unit volume of solvent. It has units of kg dm−3, g cm−3, etc. The molal concentration (or molality; symbol m) is the amount of substance per unit mass of solvent, commonly given in units of mol kg−1. Osmolality is the concentration of osmotically active particles expressed as osmoles per kilogram of solvent.


Geology and Earth Sciences
  • 1. In chemistry, the number of molecules or ions in a given volume of a substance, expressed as moles of solute per litre of solution (molarity).

    2. In mineral processing, the production of a concentrate from its ore, or the process of increasing concentration by evaporation, etc.


Economics
  • The extent to which a market is dominated by a limited number of firms. The most common ways of measuring concentration are the N-firm concentration ratio and the Herfindahl index. See also export concentration.
