In the event we do need to account for this work, we can generally do so with approximations that take advantage of the relative incompressibility of liquids and solids (this point is addressed later in this chapter).

unit (1) measurements in chemistry
... Many problems in chemistry require converting a quantity from one unit to another. To perform this conversion, you must use a conversion factor or series of conversion factors that relate two units. This method is called dimensional analysis. Any equality can be written in the form of a fraction cal ...

Insulated glazing
Insulated glazing (IG), more commonly known as double glazing (or double-pane, and increasingly triple glazing/pane) is double or triple glass window panes separated by a vacuum or other gas filled space to reduce heat transfer across a part of the building envelope.Insulated glass units are manufactured with glass in range of thickness from 3 mm to 10 mm (1/8"" to 3/8"") or more in special applications. Laminated or tempered glass may also be used as part of the construction. Most units are manufactured with the same thickness of glass used on both panes but special applications such as acoustic attenuation or security may require wide ranges of thicknesses to be incorporated in the same unit.
