In early tests with the ligand 2-(2-Thiazolylazo)-p-cresol (TAC), we found that interference of the Fe(TAC) 1 complex may have competed with Fe(TAC) 2 for Fe. Also, i pmax was not reached in UV treated seawater after overnight equilibration ([TAC] = 40 Î¼ m, Î± Fe 3 + (TAC) 2 = 3.6 Ã 10 13).
BASE UNIT - kilogram (kg) - MASS. The standard for the kilogram is a cylinder of platinum-iridium alloy kept by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in Paris. A duplicate at the National Bureau of Standards serves as the mass standard for the United States.
In the metric system mass is measured in kilograms and grams and these will be the units we will most often use. (In the United States today, almost no one knows what the unit of mass is called--it's not the pound. The pound is a unit of weight--more about weight in the next paragraph.ou will measure the mass of objects by comparing them to the mass of pennies with a thing we will call a Mass Balance. Although mass is usually measured in kilograms or grams, we will measure mass in pennies.
