Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www. iso. org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www. iso.o rg/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www. iso
.org/iso/foreword. html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 12, Quantities and units, in collaboration
with Technical Committee IEC/TC 25, Quantities and units.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 80000-9:2009), which has been
technically revised. It also incorporates the Amendment ISO 80000-9:2009/Amd. 1:2011.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— the table giving the quantities and units has been simplified;
— some definitions and the remarks have been stated physically more precisely.
A list of all parts in the ISO 80000 and IEC 80000 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Introduction
In this document, symbols for substances are shown as subscripts, for example c , w , p for substance B.
B B B
Generally, it is advisable to put symbols for substances and their states in parentheses on the same line
as the main symbol, for example c(H SO ).
2 4
In the following, the letter s is used to denote the solid state, the letter l the liquid state, and the letter g
the gaseous state.
The symbol * used as a superscript means “pure”.
⊝
The plimsoll sign is used to denote a standard in general.
∗
EXAMPLE 1 μ (,Tp) for chemical potential of pure substance B concerning a mixture system including the
B
substance B.
 −−11
EXAMPLE 2 C (H O,g,298,15K)=⋅33,58 JK ⋅mol for standard molar heat capacity at constant
m,p 2
pressure.
In an expression such as
V
m,B
ϕ =x
BB
xV
∑ i m,i
where
ϕ is the volume fraction of a particular substance B in a mixture of substances A, B, C, …;
B
x is the amount-of-substance fraction of i; and
i
V is the molar volume of the pure substance i, where all the molar volumes V , V ,V , .
m,i m,A m,B m,C
are taken at the same temperature and pressure,
the summation on the right-hand side is that over all the substances A, B, C, . of which a mixture is
composed, so that x =1 . Throughout the document sums are running over the respective index.
∑ i
Additional qualifying information on a quantity symbol may be added as a subscript or superscript (see
e.g. item 9-21) or in parentheses after the symbol.

give a precise specification of the entity

the empirical chemical formula of the mate-

atoms, ions, electrons, holes and other

It is necessary to specify precisely the
entity involved, e.g. atoms of hydrogen H
vs. molecules of hydrogen H , preferably by
giving the molecular chemical formula of
the material involved.
In the name “amount of substance”, the
words “of substance” could be replaced by
words specifying the substance concerned,
e.g. “amount of hydrogen chloride, HCl”, or
“amount of benzene, C H ”.
6 6
The name “number of moles” is often used
for “amount of substance”, but this is depre-
cated because the name of a quantity should
be distinguished from the name of the unit.
