I think it means, for instance: x1 is the bag of sea salt on my counter x2 is pure sodium chloride x3 is some number a little less than 1. I don't usually think of sea salt as a chemical, though; I eat it, rather than pure NaCl, because it has all those other elements. Getting the right mix in the Lobgugde space station is going to be a bit tricky.
