National Physical Laboratory of India is realized by using an absolute radiometer. For practical work, a group of tungsten incandescent lamps are used. The level of uncertainty is ± 1.3 × 10. Experimental work has been initiated to realize mole, the SI unit for amount of substance The NPL does not maintain standards of measurements for ionizing radiations. This is the responsibility of the Homi Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai. The standards maintained at NPL are periodically compared with standards maintained at other National Metrological Institutes in the world as well as the BIPM in Paris. This exercise ensures that Indian national standards are equivalent
Amount of substance the molar mass. Molar quantities are sometimes denoted by a subscript Latin "m" in the symbol, e.g. "C", molar heat capacity at constant pressure: the subscript may be omitted if there is no risk of ambiguity, as is often the case in pure chemistry. The main derived quantity in which amount of substance enters into the numerator is amount of substance concentration, "c". This name is often abbreviated to "amount concentration", except in clinical chemistry where "substance concentration" is the preferred term to avoid ambiguity with mass concentration. The term "molar concentration" is incorrect, but commonly used. The alchemists, and
