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).
Water chemists measure water impurities in parts per million (ppm). For understandability, hardness ordinarily is expressed in grains of hardness per gallon of water (gpg). The two systems can be converted mathematically.
In chemistry, the mass concentration ρ i (or γ i) is defined as the mass of a constituent m i divided by the volume of the mixture V. [1]= For a pure chemical the mass concentration equals its density (mass divided by volume); thus the mass concentration of a component in a mixture can be called the density of a component in a mixture.
= 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)
Moisture analysis covers a variety of methods for measuring the moisture content in solids, liquids, or gases.For example, moisture (usually measured as a percentage) is a common specification in commercial food production. [1]
Process fallout quantifies how many defects a process produces and is measured by DPMO or PPM. Process yield is the complement of process fallout and is approximately equal to the area under the probability density function Φ ( σ ) = 1 2 π ∫ − σ σ e − t 2 / 2 d t {\displaystyle \Phi (\sigma )={\frac {1}{\sqrt {2\pi }}}\int _{-\sigma ...
In probability theory, a probability density function (PDF), density function, or density of an absolutely continuous random variable, is a function whose value at any given sample (or point) in the sample space (the set of possible values taken by the random variable) can be interpreted as providing a relative likelihood that the value of the ...
