    Fluorescein aqueous solutions, diluted from 10,000 to 1 parts-per-million in intervals of 10 fold dilution. At 1 ppm the solution is a very pale yellow. At 1 ppm the solution is a very pale yellow. As the concentration increases the colour becomes a more vibrant yellow, then orange, with the final 10,000 ppm a deep red colour.

    1 volume percent = 10,000 ppmv (i.e., parts per million by volume) with a million being defined as 10 6. Care must be taken with the concentrations expressed as ppbv to differentiate between the British billion which is 10 12 and the USA billion which is 10 9 (also referred to as the long scale and short scale billion, respectively).

    = air pollutant concentration, in parts per million by volume mg/m 3 = milligrams of pollutant per cubic meter of air = atmospheric temperature in kelvins = 273.15 + °C 0.08205 = Universal Gas Law constant in atm·l/(mol·K) = molecular weight of the air pollutant (dimensionless)

  5. Mixing ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixing_Ratio

    In chemistry and physics, the dimensionless mixing ratio is the abundance of one component of a mixture relative to that of all other components. The term can refer either to mole ratio (see concentration ) or mass ratio (see stoichiometry ).

  6. Total organic carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_organic_carbon

    Persulfate methods are used in the analysis of wastewater, drinking water, and pharmaceutical waters. When used in conjunction with sensitive NDIR detectors heated persulfate TOC instruments readily measure TOC at single digit parts per billion (ppb) up to hundreds of parts per million (ppm) depending on sample volumes.

  7. Internal standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_standard

    In the calibration curve that uses the internal standard, the y-axis is the ratio of the nickel signal to the yttrium signal. This ratio is unaffected by uncertainty in the nickel measurements, as it should affect the yttrium measurements in the same way. This results in a higher R 2, 0.9993.

    "The ppm value is equivalent to the absolute fractional amount multiplied by one million." This needs to be expanded. For those who actually need this article, this will be more confusing than the words "parts per million." An example would help (I mean, an example like "a drop of blood in a 50 gallon drum would be about n parts per million").

  9. Concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration

    In chemistry, concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. Several types of mathematical description can be distinguished: mass concentration, molar concentration, number concentration, and volume concentration. [1]
