Concentration total amount of all "other" constituents in a mixture: If formula_6 is much smaller than formula_26, the mole ratio is almost identical to the mole fraction. The SI unit is mol/mol. However, the deprecated parts-per notation is often used to describe small mole ratios. The mass fraction formula_33 is the fraction of one substance with mass formula_2 to the mass of the total mixture formula_35, defined as: The SI unit is kg/kg. However, the deprecated parts-per notation is often used to describe small mass fractions. The mass ratio formula_37 is defined as the mass of a constituent formula_2 divided by
Kerma (physics) Kerma (physics) Kerma is an acronym for "kinetic energy released per unit mass", defined as the sum of the initial kinetic energies of all the charged particles liberated by uncharged ionizing radiation (i.e., indirectly ionizing radiation such as photons and neutrons) in a sample of matter, divided by the mass of the sample. It is defined by the quotient formula_1. The SI unit of kerma is the gray (Gy) (or joule per kilogram), the same as the unit of absorbed dose. However, kerma can be different from absorbed dose, depending on the energies involved. This is because ionization energy is
