  2. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    For example, the conversion factor between a mass fraction of 1 ppb and a mole fraction of 1 ppb is about 4.7 for the greenhouse gas CFC-11 in air (Molar mass of CFC-11 / Mean molar mass of air = 137.368 / 28.97 = 4.74). For volume fraction, the suffix "V" or "v" is sometimes appended to the parts-per notation (e.g. ppmV, ppbv, pptv).

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odor_detection_threshold

    The odor detection threshold is the lowest concentration of a certain odor compound that is perceivable by the human sense of smell.The threshold of a chemical compound is determined in part by its shape, polarity, partial charges, and molecular mass.

  5. Purified water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purified_water

    Combinations of a number of these processes have come into use to produce ultrapure water of such high purity that its trace contaminants are measured in parts per billion (ppb) or parts per trillion (ppt). Purified water has many uses, largely in the production of medications, in science and engineering laboratories and industries, and is ...

    .ppt, the file format used by Microsoft PowerPoint presentation software; Parts-per notation for parts-per-trillion (more common) or parts-per-thousand (less common) PerlPowerTools, a revitalized of the classic Unix command set in pure Perl; Positive partial transpose, a criterion used in quantum mechanics

  7. Air pollutant concentrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollutant_concentrations

    Although ppmv and mg/m 3 have been used for the examples in all of the following sections, concentrations such as ppbv (i.e., parts per billion by volume), volume percent, mole percent and many others may also be used for gaseous pollutants.

  8. Useful conversions and formulas for air dispersion modeling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_conversions_and...

    Although ppmv and grains per dscf have been used in the above examples, concentrations such as ppbv (i.e., parts per billion by volume), volume percent, grams per dscm and many others may also be used. 1 percent by volume = 10,000 ppmv (i.e., parts per million by volume).

  9. Alternative approaches to redefining the kilogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_approaches_to...

    That relative standard uncertainty has been 50 parts per billion (ppb) since 2006. By fixing the Avogadro constant, the practical effect of this proposal would be that the uncertainty in the mass of a 12 C atom—and the magnitude of the kilogram—could be no better than the current 50 ppb uncertainty in the Planck constant. Under this ...
