The number of semester credit hours required for an associate degree depends on the college and degree program. In general, an associate degree takes two years full time and represents half the work required for a bachelor's degree.
A dekatherm (dth) is a unit of energy used primarily to measure natural gas, developed in about 1972 by the Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation, a natural gas pipeline company. It is equal to 10 therms or 1,000,000 British thermal units (MMBtu).
Ideal Gas Definition. An ideal gas is a gas whose pressure P, volume V, and temperature T are related by the ideal gas law. PV = nRT, where n is the number of moles of the gas and R is the ideal gas constant. Ideal gases are defined as having molecules with negligible size with an average molar kinetic energy dependent only on temperature. At low temperature, most gases behave enough like ideal gases that the ideal gas law can be applied to them.
