![]() ![]() Note that ionization energies measure the tendency of a neutral atom to resist the loss of electrons. In other words, it can be expressed as the neutral atom’s likelihood of gaining an electron. The change in energy (in kJ/mole) of a neutral atom or molecule (in the gaseous phase) when an electron is added to the atom to form a negative ion. In chemistry and atomic physics, the electron affinity of an atom or molecule is defined as: The Standard English unit is pounds mass per cubic foot ( lbm/ft 3).Įlectron Affinity and Electronegativity of AluminumĮlectron Affinity of Aluminum is 42.5 kJ/mol. The standard SI unit is kilograms per cubic meter ( kg/m 3). In other words, the density (ρ) of a substance is the total mass (m) of that substance divided by the total volume (V) occupied by that substance. It is an intensive property, which is mathematically defined as mass divided by volume: Typical densities of various substances at atmospheric pressure.ĭensity is defined as the mass per unit volume. See also: Mass Number Density of Aluminum For 63Cu, the atomic mass is less than 63, so this must be the dominant factor. A nucleus with greater binding energy has lower total energy, and therefore a lower mass according to Einstein’s mass-energy equivalence relation E = mc 2. The nuclear binding energy varies between nuclei.This increases the mass of nuclei with more neutrons than protons relative to the atomic mass unit scale based on 12C with equal numbers of protons and neutrons. The neutron is slightly heavier than the proton.There are two reasons for the difference between mass number and isotopic mass, known as the mass defect: For example, 63Cu (29 protons and 34 neutrons) has a mass number of 63, and an isotopic mass in its nuclear ground state is 62.91367 u. The isotopic mass usually differs for other isotopes and is usually within 0.1 u of the mass number. One unified atomic mass unit is approximately the mass of one nucleon (either a single proton or neutron) and is numerically equivalent to 1 g/mol.įor 12C, the atomic mass is exactly 12u since the atomic mass unit is defined from it. One atomic mass unit is equal to 1.66 x 10 -24 grams. The unit of measure for mass is the atomic mass unit (amu). Note that, each element may contain more isotopes, therefore this resulting atomic mass is calculated from naturally-occuring isotopes and their abundance.

Rarely it will glitch out and make me face my own characters with the exact same fighter scores and moves, winning that fight gives huge amounts of XP. I kept doing this a bunch of times and most of the times I got different opponents. Then tap on the back arrow and the countdown will be stopped and you can tap fight to get a new set of opponents. After tapping on Fight, just tap on any of your character's names and it will bring up the screen where you can see her Info/Stats/Equip. There's a glitch with Quick Play where you can re-roll the opponents you face to get ones with higher or lower FS. (Update: the XP rewards look like a lot but they're actually very tiny since the blue XP bar shows very minimal gains when compared to fighting a team of 11.7K FS) Curious as to why it happens sometimes and not always. I ain't complaining because the XP rewards are great and the fight is somewhat more challenging now. Sometimes it tells me multiple times about the same event. Half of them are notifying me of stuff that doesn't exist like character events. The finger holding the button covers most of the text.Īlso, holy crap there are so many push notifications in this game. ![]() This is great, except on my phone (Galaxy A8), which has quite a large screen as far as phones go, it's very difficult to actually read what the rule text is. Tapping and holding this icon will give a text explanation of the restriction. There's little icons at the top of the screen that let you know what these restrictions are. On some matches there are restrictions on what characters you can use. Not a bug exactly, but more of a Quality of Life issue. There's the same sudden cutout of sound, then the sound turns back on for a second, then the whole game crashes. This seems to be the same kind of crash as when I try to drag Specials and Blockbusters. If you you try and drag any card to the top right of the screen (where the opponent's characters appear) the game will crash. Re: the bug mentioned above where dragging Parasoul's card causes the game to crash. (PS, sorry I disappeared during the actual beta bug finding phase. Every time he activates it, regardless of which character I am, or when I start blocking it will hit me, knock me down and then hit me again when I stand back up. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but I remember this was an issue in the beta too: AI Big Band's Tympany Drive super seems to be completely unblockable. I got a notification on my phone dash telling me that the Painwheel event had begun, but upon logging into the game it says there's still 8 hours of Big Band left. I have not run into another Parasoul with that attack, and I haven't unlocked her yet, so I don't know if it was a once off, or repeatable yet. This second bug has only happened once, and I haven't been able to repeat it because of what I have unlocked.Ī Random Select Bronze AI Parasoul used her Yawn attack and the game immediately crashed. This doesn't seem to happen on all devices, but is repeatable on my Galaxy A8 and a friend's Tegra K1 tablet. I'm pretty sure these items are not supposed to be dragged at all, and they don't visibly move when I drag them. However, if instead of tapping I try and drag any of the skills on the right-side window the game will crash. To equip a skill we're supposed to tap a skill, then tap Equip. Sorry I have no screenshots - I'm kind of in a crazy rush but wanted to get in a quick report: "Game frequently freezes on my an iPhone 7 on iOS10” vs “Game frequently freezes… I’m playing on a potato.” These details enable us adeptly isolate and tackle issues. A lot of you already do this! But redundancy/repetition helps me get the message across! So I’ll say it again: we love videos and images!ģ) Device and OS details. But the helpfullest?

"Bob's launcher whiffs on Tom" is helpfuller. "Bob's launcher doesn't work" is helpful. and while I have your attention, I wanted to share some bug reporting best practices! ( slick segue, right?):ġ) Include instructions on how to reproduce the bug. Given the realities of game development, we can't always tackle every issue, but I promise we're listening!

I fluffed it a bit to mix the filling and it helped but it had this weird consistency, probably due to the bounciness of the latex. Super firm in some areas and soft in others. When I got it, I took it out of the top case to check it out and it got white powder, which I assume is latex, all over my bed. Latex can smell weird but this was another level. Went right back.Įli and Elm Side Sleeper - this pillow could have been great but the drawbacks were too big. Well, the next one I got was even softer. So I returned this one and got another thinking I had a bad one. EDIT My mom got one of these too and kept complaining hers was too firm. I've stuck with it for over a month now, and I haven't returned it yet, but I'm not done looking. It works a little better when I sleeping on a wedge. But while my head and ears love it, my neck does not and I think it's because I need more loft, although tricks like putting a folded towel under it didn't help as much as I thought, so maybe it's a support issue. It feels almost between latex and memory foam in the best way. It's soft enough that it doesn't cause ear pain and it doesn't get too hot. Tuft & Needle Foam Pillow - I wanted this one to work so bad. I gave it to my husband who is quite a bit larger than me, and it his favorite pillow. Also even with it seeming too soft, it made my ear hurt. So I exchanged it for a medium and it was way softer and I just could not get comfortable with it. It had a good level of firmness but was way to tall for my neck. Purple Harmony - I bought this at a Denver Mattress store and they only had the tall in stock and I wanted it right away. The core of it is pretty firm though and I got ear pain from it. I really liked the shoulder cutout and it was a good loft for me. Therapedic Shoulder Contour Bed Pillow - This one wasn't terrible. Hurt my ear and just was not comfortable. I like it stayed cool and the level of neck support and that's it. Purple Pillow - Recommended by a friend who hated the COOP pillow. ![]() Also, even though I returned it a couple of months ago, I'm still finding filling all over my house from adjusting it all the time. If I put it at the support level I want, it's too tall. If I put it at the proper height, its too soft. The height to width ratio to get the support I need has changed. They only come in queen and king now, so I bought a queen, and its not the same at all. However, it got ruined when I washed it, so I bought a new one. Here is my review of several pillows I've tried so far.Ĭoop Eden - This pillow worked for me for a couple of years when I got in the standard size. I cover all my pillows in a silk pillowcase, too, so cover material isn't that important to me as long as I don't feel it through the cover. I would say it's still pretty soft though. I have a king-size soft-side waterbed (the kind of bed that is a foam frame with a water core) and a firm latex topper. This means super firm pillows don't work for me. I also have TMJ and am prone to ear pain at night. I have had neck issues for years, likely due to having a job where I'm at a desk all day. I sleep on my side mostly, though I do occasionally roll onto my back. Broad shoulders for my size from years of weight lifting, but not more broad than average. I'm in my early 40s, am 5'3.5", and about 135 lbs. ![]() I figured I should share my findings in case someone else finds them helpful. I've been lurking around here for months trying to find a pillow to help my neck, back and TMJ/ear pain issues. ![]() |
