The equivalent of a substance is the mass which supplies or consumes one mole of another substance in a reaction. Equivalents can be used to simplify balancing chemical equations for many reactions. When using equivalents it is often not necessary to...

Equivalent weight is the amount of an element that reacts, or is involved in reaction with, 1 mole of electrons. It is 'defined' by many texts as the weight of the element combining with 1 g hydrogen, 8 g oxygen or 35.5 g chlorine, each of which would...

A theorem concerning the equivalence of constrained and weighted designs was developed for deriving optimal designs for the constrained problem. The theorem, which is application to multiple objective problems such as Bayesian and nonlinear design, enables the constrained design problem to be characterized as...

Code writers cannot think of every circumstance NFPA CODES: NFPA 101® LIFE SAFETY CODE® Section 1.4 of NFPA 101®, Life Safety Code®, is titled "Equivalency" and states that "Nothing in this Code is intended to prevent the use of systems, methods, or...
