Definition

relational quality that is the magnitude of a particular quality per unit size of the bearer

Examples

  • the number density of cells in a culture fluid; the number density of particles in cleanroom air; the mass density of a buffer solution; the radiant energy density in the interior of an irradiation chamber

Primitive Class

This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.

Primitive Rationale

There are insufficient constructs for creating a set of necessary and sufficient conditions
