"Trace by volume" refers to a measurement indicating that a substance is present in very small quantities within a mixture or solution, typically less than 0.1% of the total volume. This term is often used in scientific contexts, such as chemistry or environmental studies, to describe contaminants or components that are present but not in significant amounts. The phrase emphasizes that while the substance is detectable, it constitutes only a minimal part of the overall composition.
It can be, meaning rarely occurring, or present in small amounts, as in trace minerals. But it is also used as a noun (e.g. without a trace) and used differently as a verb (to trace meaning to follow, trail, pursue, or locate, or to draw by copying from an original).
The trace or record made by means of a thermograph.
According to Jacques Derrida's theory of the trace, every word contains a trace of other words or meanings, which suggests that language is not fixed and meaning is constantly deferred. This concept of the trace emphasizes the interconnectedness and complexity of language, where no word can have a singular, stable meaning.
Derrida believed that all human words (and even human thoughts) were only shadows or "traces" of their true meaning, and that their actual meaning could only be expressed compared to other thoughts and words, which he labeled as "différance".

"Trace elements" are elements which are present in a sample, but in relatively very small amounts. "Trace gasses" probably means gasses which are present in a sample, but in relatively very small amounts. the gases in earths atmosphere that take up less than 1% volume.
According to Jacques Derrida's theory of the trace, every word contains traces of other words, meanings, and contexts within it due to its reliance on language's inherent differences and references. This concept suggests that meaning is never fixed or singular, but is instead a web of interconnected references and significations.
Ah, the prefix for "trace" is "re-." Just like how we add a little touch of color to a blank canvas, adding "re-" to "trace" gives it a new meaning and depth. Keep exploring the world of words, my friend, and let your creativity flow like a happy little stream.
