Talk:Solution
From Academic Kids
From the article:
"The molinity unit is moles of solute per kg of solution. The formal is the same as the molal, but is used when it is not clear what a molecule of solute is, for instance metals and salts. It is one mole of the chemical formula per kilogram."
What on earth does this mean? "Molinity?" "Formal?" These definitions sound like utter gobbledegook to me. This needs clarification, and possibly some of this can be moved or copied to concentration too. -- FirstPrinciples 15:55, Sep 25, 2004 (UTC)
- OK, I moved that stuff to concentration and added a link in the article. -- FirstPrinciples 06:43, Sep 27, 2004 (UTC)
- Merging the article with solubility equilibrium, as is suggested at the heading, is not a good idea. Solubility product analysis is usually done only for near-insoluble substances, and involve several concepts which would not fit well in this article. Duplode 5:32, 15 Mar 2005
[edit]
Alternative meanings: software engineering?
- In chemistry, a solution is a homogeneous mixture of one or more substances (the solutes) dissolved in another substance (the solvent).
- In business, a solution is suspiciously similar to a product, only more expensive, and supplied by a partner instead of a supplier
Dilbertesques aside, are there enough solution providers in the IT world to warrant mentioning that use of the word? Ojw 20:12, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
