milligram/liter to part/million (ppm)
Please provide values below to convert milligram/liter [mg/L] to part/million (ppm), or change ↔.
milligram/liter [mg/L]
Definition: A unit that expresses the mass of a substance in milligrams per liter of solution.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the metric system where milligrams (mg) are used for mass and liters (L) for volume.
CurrentUse: Commonly used in water quality monitoring and environmental studies to measure low concentrations of substances such as pollutants.
funfact: One milligram per liter is equivalent to one part per million (ppm), which is often used in environmental measurements.
part/million (ppm)
Definition: A unit of measurement expressing the number of units of a substance in a million parts of a solution or mixture.
Historyandorigin: Part of the imperial system, used to describe very dilute concentrations.
CurrentUse: Widely used in environmental science, chemistry, and air quality monitoring to quantify pollutants and chemicals in very small concentrations.
funfact: 1 ppm is equivalent to 1 milligram of a substance in 1 liter of water, or 1 milligram per kilogram in air.

How to Convert milligram/liter to part/million (ppm)
1 milligram/liter [mg/L] = 1.001142303 part/million (ppm)
1 part/million (ppm) = 0.9988590004 milligram/liter [mg/L]
we use cross multiplication method
milligram/liter [mg/L] → part/million (ppm)
1 → 1.001142303
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.001142303=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5017134545
