Mole (unit) and growth chamber lighting for plants is sometimes expressed in micromoles per square meter per second, where 1 mol photons = photons. In 2011, the 24th meeting of the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) agreed to a plan for a possible revision of the SI base unit definitions at an undetermined date. The 26th meeting of the CGPM, in a formal vote on 16 November 2018, approved the proposed redefinition of SI base units mole, kilogram, ampere and kelvin. One mole of a substance will have exactly specified "elementary entities" of that substance. The definition of the mole
Elasticity (physics) types of material parameter. The first type of material parameter is called a "modulus", which measures the amount of force per unit area needed to achieve a given amount of deformation. The SI unit of modulus is the pascal (Pa). A higher modulus typically indicates that the material is harder to deform. The second type of parameter measures the "elastic limit", the maximum stress that can arise in a material before the onset of permanent deformation. Its SI unit is also pascal (Pa). When describing the relative elasticities of two materials, both the modulus and the elastic limit have to
