  2. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    When working with aqueous solutions, it is common to assume that the density of water is 1.00 g/mL. Therefore, it is common to equate 1 kilogram of water with 1 L of water. Consequently, 1 ppm corresponds to 1 mg/L and 1 ppb corresponds to 1 μg/L.

    1 Nm 3 of any gas (measured at 0 °C and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure) equals 37.326 scf of that gas (measured at 60 °F and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure). 1 kmol of any ideal gas equals 22.414 Nm 3 of that gas at 0 °C and 1 atmosphere of absolute pressure ... and 1 lbmol of any ideal gas equals 379.482 scf of that gas at 60 °F and ...

    The examples don't seem to be too accurate. A drop is usually defined as 0.05 ml, which then gives;. 1 drop in 50 ml = 1‰, 50ml is a very small cup 1 drop in 50 l = 1ppm 50 l is about 11 gallons, not 40 1 drop in 50 cubic metres = 1 ppb 1 drop = 1ppt, a 50 m swimming pool is 50*25*2 = 2,500 m^3 1 drop in 50,000,000 cubic metres = 1ppq, 50,000,000 m^3 is equivalent to a lake covering a square ...

    The abundance of elements in Earth's crust is shown in tabulated form with the estimated crustal abundance for each chemical element shown as mg/kg, or parts per million (ppm) by mass (10,000 ppm = 1%).

  6. Kilogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram

    1795: the gram (1 / 1000 of a kilogram) was provisionally defined as the mass of one cubic centimetre of water at the melting point of ice. [12] 1799: The Kilogramme des Archives was manufactured as a prototype. It had a mass equal to the mass of 1 dm 3 of water at the temperature of its maximum density, which is approximately 4 °C. [13]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_dose

    For the drugs administered by oral and dermal route, the units of threshold dose are mg/kg body-weight/day (dose of the drug in mg per body weight in kg per day) or ppm (parts per million), while the threshold dose of drugs by inhalation delivery has the unit of mg/L 6h/day (amount of drug in mg in 1L of air, for 6 hours per day). [8]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_perchlorate

    Prophylaxis with perchlorate-containing water at concentrations of 17 ppm, corresponding to 0.5 mg/(kg·d) intake for a person of 70 kg consuming 2 litres of water per day, was found to reduce the baseline of radioiodine uptake by 67% [10] This is equivalent to ingesting a total of just 35 mg of perchlorate ions per day. In another related ...

  9. Total suspended solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_suspended_solids

    TSS of a water or wastewater sample is determined by pouring a carefully measured volume of water (typically one litre; but less if the particulate density is high, or as much as two or three litres for very clean water) through a pre-weighed filter of a specified pore size, then weighing the filter again after the drying process that removes all water on the filter.
