INTRODUCT
ION
• PPM and PPB are units used in atmospheric chemistry
to describe the concentration of gases.

• PPM stands for parts of gas per million parts of air,

and PPB is parts per billion.

• If that's not easy to imagine, try these examples: Part

per million (ppm): 1 second in just under 2 weeks. 1
liter of water in a swimming pool.

• Part per billion (ppb): 1 second in 32 years. 1 ml of

water in a swimming pool (that's about the size of a
sugar cube).
 Definitions

1) Parts per million (ppm) is a way of expressing very dilute

concentrations of substances. Just as per cent means out of a
hundred, so parts per million or ppm means out of a million.
Usually describes the concentration of something in water or
soil. One ppm is equivalent to 1 milligram of something per
liter of water (mg/l) or 1 milligram of something per
kilogram soil (mg/kg).  ​

2) Parts per billion (ppb) is the number of units of mass of a

contaminant (polluter ) per 1000 million units of total
mass. Also µg/L or micrograms per liter. More: ppb (or ppbm)
is used to measure the concentration of a contaminant in soils
and sediments.​
 ● Definition: The percent by mass (present by
weight) is the ratio of the mass of a solute to the
mass of the solution, multiplied by 100 percent.

○ No unit since it is a ratio of two similar

quantities
1 gram = 103 milligram = 106
microgram
Expressions
● Mass of solution = gram of solute + gram of
solvent

● Parts Per million (ppm) =

● Parts Per Billion (ppb) =

 Solution by
“Parts”

Parts per million Parts per billion

is the number of particles of solute is the number of particles of solute
per one million particles of per one billion particles of
solution. solution.
Units are 1 ppm = 1 mg/L 1 ppb = 1 mg/L
 Questions

1) Consider a 155.3 g pond water sample that contains 1.7x10-

4 g of phosphates. In ppm, what is the phosphate
concentration?

Answer =

2) If you have 39.16 grams of Zn₃(PO₄) ₂ dissolved in 56660

grams of swimming pool water, what is concentration in parts
per million (ppm)?

3) If you have 0.401 grams of C₆H₆ dissolved in 51820 grams

of water aquarium, what is concentration in parts per million
(ppb)?
