Grams to PPM Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the concentration in PPM is:

\[ PPM = \frac{G}{T} \times 10^6 \]

Where:

\(PPM\) is the concentration in parts per million (ppm)
\(G\) is the mass of the substance (grams)
\(T\) is the total mass or volume of the mixture (grams or mL)

What is Grams to PPM?

Grams to parts per million (ppm) is a conversion of measurement used to denote the concentration of one substance within another. One part per million signifies one part of a substance per million parts of the total mixture. It is often used in scientific research, environmental studies, and other fields to measure very small quantities.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Mass of the Substance (G) = 0.5 grams
Total Mass or Volume of the Mixture (T) = 1000 grams

Using the formula to calculate the concentration in PPM:

\[ PPM = \frac{0.5}{1000} \times 10^6 = 500 \text{ ppm} \]

The concentration is 500 ppm.
