As an example, let's consider a 12% by weight sodium chloride solution. Such a solution would have 12 grams of sodium chloride for every 100 grams of solution. To make such a solution, you could weigh out 12 grams of sodium chloride, and then add 88 grams of water, so that the total mass for the solution is 100 grams.s an example, let's consider a 12% by weight sodium chloride solution.

A distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack is when an attacker, or attackers, attempt to make it impossible for a service to be delivered. This can be achieved by thwarting access to virtually anything: servers, devices, services, networks, applications, and even specific transactions within applications.
DOS may refer to any of the following: 1  1. Short for Disk operating system, DOS is an acronym often used to describe MS-DOS and the Windows command line. 2  2. Short for Disk operating system, DOS refers to any operating system that runs from a disk drive. Today, all operating systems can be considered disk operating systems. 3. Short for Denial of Service, a DoS attack is a method of attacking a networked computer by sending it an abnormally high number of requests, causing its network to slow down or fail. Since a single individual cannot generate enough traffic for a DoS attack, these attacks are usually run from multiple computers infected by worms or zombie computers for a DDoS.
