Seating capacity is the number of people who can be seated in a specific space, in terms of both the physical space available, and limitations set by law. Seating capacity can be used in the description of anything ranging from an automobile that seats two to a stadium that seats hundreds of thousands of people. The largest sporting venue in the world, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, has a permanent seating capacity for more than 235,000 people and infield seating that raises capacity to an approximate 400,000.
just trying to get my head around heat capacity here for an experiment;
if conducting a reaction in an adiabatic vessel, of which its material has a finite heat capacity, does this mean that if sufficient heat is produced within the vessel (through a chemical reaction), that the adiabatic...
