Whiteboards are essential in many workplaces. However, if used frequently, the whiteboard can be filled with lines and colors that are difficult to clean. The process of making it look like new again is easy to do and usually only requires a simple cleaning product such as soap or alcohol and a clean cloth.

Atoms are too small to be measured in a chemical substance. To work with specific amounts of substances, scientists group them into units called moles. One mole is defined as the number of carbon atoms in 12 grams of the carbon-12 isotope, which is approximately 6.

Gravity is one of the fundamental forces in physics. The most important aspect of gravity is that it is universal: all objects have a gravitational force that attracts other objects. The magnitude of the gravitational force depends on the mass and the distance between the two objects.

The pH scale measures the probability that a substance will give up a proton (or an H+ atom) and the probability that a substance will accept a proton. Many molecules, including dyes, will change structure by accepting protons from an acidic environment (an environment that readily releases protons) or releasing protons to an alkaline environment (an environment that readily accepts protons).

It is important to test the pH--acid or alkaline-level of the water. Water is consumed by plants and animals and we depend on them. Therefore, we indirectly consume it every day. The pH level of the water can provide information about potential contamination.

If you test the water and find that the pH level is quite high, it means the water is either too alkaline, or too alkaline. Water with a high pH level can cause serious conditions, both for drinking and as water for swimming pools, aquarium tanks, or garden water.

Electrons are negatively charged particles that make up part of an atom. All basic elements are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. The basic concept in chemistry is the ability to find the number of electrons present in an atom. Using the periodic table of elements, the number of electrons can be found easily.

The average atomic mass is not a direct measure of a single atom. This mass is the average mass per atom of a general sample of a particular element. If you could calculate the mass of a single billionth of an atom, you could calculate this value in the same way as you would any other average.

The electron configuration of an atom is a numerical representation of the orbits of the electrons. Electron orbits are the different regions around the atomic nucleus, where electrons are usually present. An electron configuration can tell the reader about the number of electro orbits an atom has, as well as the number of electrons occupying each orbit.

In chemistry, the concentration of a solution is the amount of a substance that is dissolved, called the solute, which is mixed with another substance, called the solvent. The standard formula is C = m/V, where C is the concentration, m is the mass of the solute, and V is the total volume of the solution.

A cubic inch is a measurement of volume that is equivalent to measuring a cube of 1 inch (2.5 cm) on each side. Thus, the volume of an object in cubic inches is the same as the calculation of these cubes. There are many ways to calculate the volume of an object in cubic inches, but in the simplest case, with a 3-dimensional rectangular prism (box), the volume is simply length × width × height with all measurements in inches.

Finding the number of terms in an arithmetic series may sound daunting, but it's actually quite simple. You just need to enter the numbers into the formula U = a + (n - 1) b and find the value of n, which is the number of terms. Know that U is the last number in the series, a is the first term in the series, and b is the difference or difference between adjacent terms.

A regular polygon is a convex 2-dimensional shape (having side angles less than 180 degrees) with congruent sides and equal angles. Many polygons, such as rectangles or triangles, have simple area formulas. However, if you're working with polygons that have more than 4 sides, the best way to solve this is to use a formula that uses the apothem and perimeter of the shape.
