Partial PPM Move Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Partial PPM Move (PPM):

\[ PPM = \frac{C1 - C0}{C0} \times 10^6 \]

Where:

\(PPM\) is the Partial Parts Per Million Move
\(C1\) is the Final Concentration (mg/L)
\(C0\) is the Initial Concentration (mg/L)

What is Partial PPM Move?

Partial PPM (parts per million) move is a measure of the change in concentration of a substance in a solution. It is calculated by finding the difference between the final and initial concentrations, dividing by the initial concentration, and then multiplying by 10 to the power of 6 to convert the result to parts per million.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Initial Concentration (\(C0\)) = 50 mg/L
Final Concentration (\(C1\)) = 75 mg/L

Using the formula:

Step 1: Calculate the difference between final and initial concentrations:

\[ C1 - C0 = 75 - 50 = 25 \text{ mg/L} \]

Step 2: Divide by the initial concentration and multiply by \(10^6\):

\[ PPM = \frac{25}{50} \times 10^6 = 0.5 \times 10^6 = 500000 \text{ ppm} \]

The Partial PPM Move is 500000 ppm.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Initial Concentration (\(C0\)) = 100 mg/L
Final Concentration (\(C1\)) = 120 mg/L

Using the formula:

Step 1: Calculate the difference between final and initial concentrations:

\[ C1 - C0 = 120 - 100 = 20 \text{ mg/L} \]

Step 2: Divide by the initial concentration and multiply by \(10^6\):

\[ PPM = \frac{20}{100} \times 10^6 = 0.2 \times 10^6 = 200000 \text{ ppm} \]

The Partial PPM Move is 200000 ppm.
