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.
Base units in the Metric System can be converted into units that are more appropriate for the quantity being measured by adding a prefix to the name of the base unit. The common metric prefixes are given below. Metric System Prefixes.
