Thus, the amount of oxygen required by bacteria to break down the organic matter present in a certain volume of a sample of water, is called Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD).We will consider only mechanical work i.e., pressure-volume work.If the volume of goods and services produced in the economy remains unchanged, the extra money will lead to increase in prices of all commodities.Breakeven analysis is a technique used by managers to study the relationship between costs, volume and profits.We can specify an unambiguous (absolute) value for volume of a system in a particular state, but not the absolute value of the internal energy.When volume of the reaction mixture is halved, the partial pressure and the concentration are doubled.After a large number of rounds, therefore, the size of the increments will be virtually indistinguishable from zero and subsequent round effects will not practically contribute anything to the total volume of money supply.Thus, aldosterone helps in the maintenance of electrolytes, body fluid volume, osmotic pressure and blood pressure.As the market for opium expanded in China, larger volumes of opium flowed out of Bengal ports.The sales volume at which there is no profit, no loss is known as breakeven point.If we expose three watch glasses containing separately 1mL each of acetone, ethyl alcohol, and water to atmosphere and repeat the experiment with different volumes of the liquids in a warmer room, it is observed that in all such cases the liquid eventually disappears and the time taken for complete evaporation depends on the nature of the liquid, the amount of the liquid and the temperature.The system must be described in order to make any useful calculations by specifying quantitatively each of the properties such as its pressure (p), volume ( ), and temperature (T ) as well as the composition of the system.If the volume is kept constant and an inert gas such as argon is added which does not take part in the reaction, the equilibrium remains undisturbed.That is why businessmen make all possible efforts to maximise profits, by increasing the volume of sales or reducing costs.Since the bomb calorimeter is sealed, its volume does not change i.e., the energy changes associated with reactions are measured at constant volume.
