PPM to mg/L Converter

Convert Parts Per Million (PPM) to Milligrams per Liter (mg/L)

PPM Value:

Solute Density (g/mL):

Result:

100 mg/L

Understanding PPM to mg/L Conversion

What is PPM?

Parts per million (PPM) is a measurement of concentration that indicates the ratio of solute to solution in millionths. For example, 1 PPM means one part of solute per million parts of solution.

What is mg/L?

Milligrams per liter (mg/L) expresses concentration as mass per unit volume. It measures how many milligrams of solute are present in one liter of solution.

Conversion Formula

The conversion between PPM and mg/L depends on the density of the solute:

mg/L = PPM × density (g/mL)

Common Applications

This conversion is crucial in:

Water quality analysis
Environmental monitoring
Chemical manufacturing
Pharmaceutical production
