Fractional Volume of an extraction solvent is a fraction of the optimum volume of the extraction solvent obtained by dividing the optimum volume of the extraction solvent needed to extract all of the desired solute from a given mass of the solid material into equal smaller volumes for use in separate extraction cycles
If 100ml of an extraction solvent is the optimum volume that would extract all the herbal solute from a medicinal herb, then 100ml/2 gives a fractional volume of an extraction solvent of 50ml, 100ml/3 gives a fraxtional volume of an extraction solvent of 33.333ml
100ml/4 gives a fraxtional volume of an extraction solvent of 25ml,
1/5 x 100 ml gives a fraxtional volume of an extraction solvent of 20ml.
Using fractional volumes of an extraction solvent for extraction purposes gives better extraction yields than using the optimum volume of an extraction solvent as a whole.

Also known locally as "TF Shitty," TFSouth high school is a small garbage institue in Lansing, Illinois. Illegal activity is minimal, as is the white population. The teachers either care too little or too much.
There's a 3D printer in that weird lab in the 500 hallway? And the water fountains still taste like rust and pneumonia...TF Shitty, am I right?

To accomplish a task by completing small, discrete portions until achieving the desired state of completion.
I did my laundry by fractional ass-ing it. Wash yesterday, dry today, might fold tomorrow but might not.

The almost impossible ability to separate facts from fiction due to the tiny amount of probable truth we as humans today... have obtained.
The older I get, the more I see SCIENCE-FRACTION as a sad condition. Until we can find more absolute science... it’s often just guessing.

Mr. Nolan: Alright, so we hate these fractions in this equation, so let's kill them. This is Fractional Genocide.

A violation of the snatch also known as the vagina. It is used as trash talk among gamers and other sorts of people.
Yo, whatever bitch killed me camping in the corner. Your mom has a fair share of snatch & fraction moments.
