  1. Very low solute concentrations are often expressed using appropriately small units such as parts per million (ppm) or parts per billion (ppb). Like percentage (“part per hundred”) units, ppm and ppb may be defined in terms of masses, volumes, or mixed mass-volume units.

  2. Definition. Parts per million (ppm) and parts per billion (ppb) show a relationship between two quanti-ties that use the same units. A part per million could be one drop per one million drops, one gram per one million grams, etc. By definition, one ppm = 1,000 ppb.

  3. In science and engineering, the parts-per notation is a set of pseudo-units to describe small values of miscellaneous dimensionless quantities, e.g. mole fraction or mass fraction. Since these fractions are quantity-per-quantity measures, they are pure numbers with no associated units of measurement.

  4. Student Sheet 2. An even smaller concentration measurement, used for methane (CH4) is parts per billion (ppb). One ppb is one part in 1 billion. One drop of ink in one of the largest tanker trucks used to haul gasoline would be an ink concentration of 1 ppb.

  5. They are abbreviations for the words parts-per-million, parts-per-billion, and parts-per-trillion. These symbols have become commonplace in everyday use, in the media for example, as well as in scientific and technical contexts.

  6. Jan 30, 2023 · Parts per Million: A concentration of a solution that contained 1 g solute and 1000000 mL solution (same as 1 mg solute and 1 L solution) would create a very small percentage concentration. Because a solution like this would be so dilute, the density of the solution is well approximated by the density of the solvent; for water that is 1 g/mL ...

  8. Very low solute concentrations are often expressed using appropriately small units such as parts per million (ppm) or parts per billion (ppb). Like percentage (“part per hundred”) units, ppm and ppb may be defined in terms of masses, volumes, or even numbers of atoms, as long as the units are the same (so that units cancel).
