UNITS
UNITS
The FE exam and this handbook use both the metric system of units and the U.S. Customary System (USCS). In the USCS system
of units, both force and mass are called pounds. Therefore, one must distinguish the pound-force (lbf) from the pound-mass (lbm)
The pound-force is that force which accelerates one pound-mass at 32.174 ft/sec2. Thus, 1 lbf = 32.174 lbm-ft/sec2. The expression
32.174 lbm-ft/(lbf-sec2) is designated asgcand is used to resolve expressions involving both mass and force expressed as pounds. For
instance, in writing Newtons second law, the equation would be written asF = ma/gc, whereFis in lbf, min lbm, and ais in ft/sec2
Similar expressions exist for other quantities. Kinetic Energy,KE = mv2/2gc, withKEin (ft-lbf); Potential Energy,PE = mgh/gc, with
PEin (ft-lbf); Fluid Pressure,p= gh/gc, withpin (lbf/ft2); Specifc Weight, SW= g/gc, in (lbf/ft
3); Shear Stress, = (/gc)(dv/dy)
with shear stress in (lbf/ft2). In all these examples,gcshould be regarded as a unit conversion factor. It is frequently not writtenexplicitly in engineering equations. However, its use is required to produce a consistent set of units.
Note that the conversion factorgc[lbm-ft/(lbf-sec2)] should not be confused with the local acceleration of gravityg, which has
different units (m/s2or ft/sec2) and may be either its standard value (9.807 m/s2or 32.174 ft/sec2) or some other local value.
If the problem is presented in USCS units, it may be necessary to use the constant gcin the equation to have a consistent set of units

IDEAL GAS CONSTANTS
The universal gas constant, designated as R in the table below, relates pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of
an ideal gas. When that universal constant, R , is divided by the molecular weight of the gas, the result, often designated as R
has units of energy per degree per unit mass [kJ/(kgK) or ft-lbf/(lbm-R)] and becomes characteristic of the particular gas. Some
disciplines, notably chemical engineering, often use the symbolRto refer to the universal gas constant R .

or compound which will combine with or replace directlyor indirectly 1.008 parts by mass of hydrogen, 8.000 parts

Le Chatelier's Principle for Chemical Equilibrium When
a stress (such as a change in concentration, pressure, or
temperature) is applied to a system in equilibrium, the
equilibrium shifts in such a way that tends to relieve the stress
Heats of Reaction, Solution, Formation, and Combustion
Chemical processes generally involve the absorption or
evolution of heat. In an endothermic process, heat is absorbed
(enthalpy change is positive). In an exothermic process, heat is
evolved (enthalpy change is negative).

Metallic Elements In general, metallic elements are
distinguished from nonmetallic elements by their luster,
malleability, conductivity, and usual ability to form positive
ions.
Nonmetallic Elements In general, nonmetallic elements are
not malleable, have low electrical conductivity, and rarely
form positive ions.
Faradays Law In the process of electrolytic changes,
equal quantities of electricity charge or discharge equivalent
quantities of ions at each electrode. One gram equivalent
weight of matter is chemically altered at each electrodefor 96,485 coulombs, or one Faraday, of electricity passed
through the electrolyte.
A catalyst is a substance that alters the rate of a chemical
reaction and may be recovered unaltered in nature and amount
at the end of the reaction. The catalyst does not affect the
position of equilibrium of a reversible reaction.
The atomic number is the number of protons in the atomic
nucleus. The atomic number is the essential feature which
distinguishes one element from another and determines the
position of the element in the periodic table.
Boiling Point Elevation The presence of a nonvolatile solutein a solvent raises the boiling point of the resulting solution
compared to the pure solvent; i.e., to achieve a given vapor
pressure, the temperature of the solution must be higher than
that of the pure substance.
Freezing Point Depression The presence of a solute lowers
the freezing point of the resulting solution compared to that of
the pure solvent.
