Dilution Definition and 70 Threads

Stock dilution, also known as equity dilution, is the decrease in existing shareholders' ownership percentage of a company as a result of the company issuing new equity. New equity increases the total shares outstanding which has a dilutive effect on the ownership percentage of existing shareholders. This increase in the number of shares outstanding can result from a primary market offering (including an initial public offering), employees exercising stock options, or by issuance or conversion of convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants into stock. This dilution can shift fundamental positions of the stock such as ownership percentage, voting control, earnings per share, and the value of individual shares.

    Chemistry Calculation of molar conductance at infinite dilution

    The answer given is 524*10^4. The process used is by adding/subtracting the values given. But my concern is that isn't molar conductivity an intensive property? And it hence can't be added. So how is it added and the answer obtained.

    Engineering Effects of different starting Temperatures on sulfuric acid dilution

    I've been able to make a spreadsheet showing how the temperature changes depending on the final H2SO4 concentration in the diluite solution, but only if both the starting 98% acid and water are at ambient temperature. I'd like to figure out how to account for the difference in temperature of the...

    Dilution problem when only working with grams

    Hi, So I am aware of the C1V1=C2V2 equation but I feel that this is not really applicable here. I attempted to go about it through instinct, so I would take 0.801g/43.883g = 0.0182. And then just multiply 0.0182 with 2.34g, to get 0.0426g. So the answer would be, if I took 2.34 g from the...
