PPM and PPB

00:00 - Intro

01:59 - PPM = parts per million. It's the density of a given substance dissolved in water. It's the ratio of that substance compared to water. 1 PPM means the dissolved substance is one-millionth of the volume of water.

03:47 - PPM = mg/L. Converting from the metric system it makes sense. 1 cubic meter of water contains 1000 Liters. Each liter contains 1000 mL. Then we switch to solids, because we're talking about dissolved substances. 1 mL = 1000 mg.

07:00 - Brief overview of chemistry targets that use PPM

10:16 - Phosphates are measured in PPB, not PPM. Parts per billion is one-thousandth of a PPM. 1000 ppb = 1 ppm.

11:56 - Conclusion. Thanks for listening!
