What is the total mass of solute in 1000. grams of a solution having a concentration of 5 parts per million?

50 grams or 50,000 mili grams  is the mass of solute in 1000 grams of a solution having a concentration of 5 parts per million.

Explanation:

Total mass of solution = 1000 grams or 1000 ml since 1 gram = 1 ml

concentration is 5 parts per million ( 5 mg in 1000 ml solution or 0.005 gram in 1000 ml)

the formula used for parts per million:

parts per million =

putting the values in the equation:

parts per million =

0.005 x 1000 = mass of solute

50 grams= mass of solute

converting this into mg

50,000 mg. is the total mass of solute in 5ppm of 1000 ml solution.

b. accuracy of the data matters alot more than its number of digits, organization or amount of detail. quantitative observation is more accepted than the qualitative observation.
