Dans les cryptomonnaies utilisant la méthode de validation par preuve de travail pour ajouter un bloc supplémentaire à la chaîne de blocs, chaque mineur du réseau doit réaliser des calculs coûteux en temps et en énergie afin de chiffrer l'ensemble des transactions d'un bloc ainsi que les transactions chiffrées de la chaîne de bloc précédente. [...] L'ordinateur ou le groupe d'ordinateurs qui trouvent en premier la solution du chiffrement diffusent le résultat aux autres participants du réseau qui peuvent facilement valider sans requérir de la puissance de calcul. Lorsque la solution est validée, elle est diffusée à l'ensemble du réseau. Le mineur ayant trouvé la solution est récompensé en monnaie nouvelle selon les modalités définies par le protocole de la cryptomonnaie. 3, record 1, French, - preuve%20de%20travail

The ratio of the concentration of a material in the octanol phase to the concentration in the aqueous phase of a two-phase octanol-water system. 10, record 3, English, - octanol%2Dwater%20partition%20coefficient
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The octanol-water partition coefficient is the ratio of the concentration of a chemical in octanol and in water at equilibrium and at a specified temperature. Octanol is an organic solvent that is used as a surrogate for natural organic matter. This parameter is used in many environmental studies to help determine the fate of chemicals in the environment. An example would be using the coefficient to predict the extent a contaminant will bioaccumulate in fish. The octanol-water partition coefficient has been correlated to water solubility; therefore, the water solubility of a substance can be used to estimate its octanol-water partition coefficient. 11, record 3, English, - octanol%2Dwater%20partition%20coefficient
