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.
The gram was the original base weight unit of the metric system being defined in 1795 as the absolute weight of a volume of water equal to the cube of the hundredth part of the metre, at the temperature of melting ice or the weight of a cubic centimetre of water at 0 degrees celsius in simpler parlance. SI Metric.
