  2. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    As the concentration decreases the colour becomes orange, then a vibrant yellow, with the final 1 ppm sample a very pale yellow. 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.

    inhaled carbon monoxide induces unconsciousness in 2–3 breaths and death in < 3 min (12 800 ppm) [15] 10 −3: mM 0.32–32 mM: normal range of hydronium ions in stomach acid (pH 1.5–3.5) [16] 5.5 mM: upper bound for healthy blood glucose when fasting [17] 7.8 mM: upper bound for healthy blood glucose 2 hours after eating [17] 10 −2: cM 20 mM

    For example, such a regulation might limit the concentration of NOx to 55 ppmv in a dry combustion exhaust gas corrected to 3 volume percent O 2. As another example, a regulation might limit the concentration of particulate matter to 0.1 grain per standard cubic foot (i.e., scf) of dry exhaust gas corrected to 12 volume percent CO 2.

    As an example, a measured NO x concentration of 45 ppmv in a dry gas having 5 volume % O 2 is: 45 × ( 20.9 - 3 ) ÷ ( 20.9 - 5 ) = 50.7 ppmv of NO x. when corrected to a dry gas having a specified reference O 2 content of 3 volume %. Note: The measured gas concentration C m must first be corrected to a dry basis before using the above equation.

  7. Molar concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_concentration

    Molar concentration or molarity is most commonly expressed in units of moles of solute per litre of solution. [1] For use in broader applications, it is defined as amount of substance of solute per unit volume of solution, or per unit volume available to the species, represented by lowercase : [2]

  8. Concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration

    In chemistry, concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. Several types of mathematical description can be distinguished: mass concentration , molar concentration , number concentration , and volume concentration . [ 1 ]

  9. Threshold limit value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_limit_value

    Its units are in parts per million (ppm) for gases and in milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m 3) for particulates such as dust, smoke and mist. The basic formula for converting between ppm and mg/m 3 for gases is ppm = (mg/m^3) * 24.45 / molecular weight. This formula is not applicable to airborne particles.
