What is the concentration of a solution, in parts per million, if 0.02 gram of #Na_3PO_4# is dissolved? Chemistry Solutions Solving Using PPM (Parts Per Million) 1 Answer anor277 Apr 28, 2016 #1# #"ppm"# #=# #1*mg*L^-1#. You have not given us a volume Explanation: A #"ppm"# is so called because #1# #L# of water has a mass of #1# #kg#, i.e. #10^6# #mg#. So if you have #0.020# #g#, you have #20xx10^-3*g#, that is #20# #mg# or (!!IF THERE IS ONE LITRE OF SOLUTION!!) #20# #"ppm"#. Answer link Related questions What is PPM?
