  2. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    The difference is quite significant when dealing with gases, and it is very important to specify which quantity is being used. For example, the conversion factor between a mass fraction of 1 ppb and a mole fraction of 1 ppb is about 4.7 for the greenhouse gas CFC-11 in air (Molar mass of CFC-11 / Mean molar mass of air = 137.368 / 28.97 = 4.74 ...

  3. Methylene blue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylene_blue

    The formation of methylene blue after the reaction of hydrogen sulfide with dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine and iron(III) at pH 0.4 – 0.7 is used to determine by photometric measurements sulfide concentration in the range 0.020 to 1.50 mg/L (20 ppb to 1.5 ppm). [50] The test is very sensitive and the blue coloration developing upon contact of the ...

  4. Useful conversions and formulas for air dispersion modeling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_conversions_and...

    Here are the conversion factors for those various expressions of wind speed: 1 m/s = 2.237 statute mile/h = 1.944 knots 1 knot = 1.151 statute mile/h = 0.514 m/s 1 statute mile/h = 0.869 knots = 0.447 m/s. Note: 1 statute mile = 5,280 feet = 1,609 meters

  5. Air pollutant concentrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollutant_concentrations

    The conversion equations depend on the temperature at which the conversion is wanted (usually about 20 to 25 °C). At an ambient sea level atmospheric pressure of 1 atm (101.325 kPa or 1.01325 bar ), the general equation is:

  6. Talk:Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    The examples don't seem to be too accurate. A drop is usually defined as 0.05 ml, which then gives;. 1 drop in 50 ml = 1‰, 50ml is a very small cup 1 drop in 50 l = 1ppm 50 l is about 11 gallons, not 40 1 drop in 50 cubic metres = 1 ppb 1 drop = 1ppt, a 50 m swimming pool is 50*25*2 = 2,500 m^3 1 drop in 50,000,000 cubic metres = 1ppq, 50,000,000 m^3 is equivalent to a lake covering a square ...

  7. Alkalinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkalinity

    Alkalinity is typically reported as mg/L as CaCO 3. (The conjunction "as" is appropriate in this case because the alkalinity results from a mixture of ions but is reported "as if" all of this is due to CaCO 3.) This can be converted into milliequivalents per Liter (meq/L) by dividing by 50 (the approximate MW of CaCO 3 divided by 2).

  8. Toxicity characteristic leaching procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxicity_characteristic...

    Toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) is a soil sample extraction method for chemical analysis employed as an analytical method to simulate leaching through a landfill.

  9. Grain per gallon - Wikipedia

    Calcium and magnesium ions present as sulfates, chlorides, carbonates and bicarbonates cause water to be hard. Water chemists measure water impurities in parts per million (ppm).
