1 mL (they changed it from ml to mL) weighs about 1 g. Parts per million is grams/grams times 1,000,000. So in 45 mL you have 45 g. Multiply times 10 ppm, then divide by 1,000,000 to convert ppm to g. This gives 0.00045 g Ag in 45 mL 10 ppm solution. Using dimensional analysis (where you cancel the units) it looks like:
45 mL soln X 10 ppm Ag/mL soln X 1 g Ag/1,000,000 ppm = 0.00045 g Ag John ________________________________ From: Steve G [[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, January 05, 2013 11:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: CS>Calculate amount of grams in a 10ppm 45ml dose please? I don't know the answer off the top of my head, but at 10 parts per million, the answer is not going to be in grams. You'd have to have gallons of the stuff before you'd get to a gram.

To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, January 5, 2013, 2:01 PM Hello community, Can somebody kindly help me calculate the equivalent of silver grams in a 45ml dose? Please let me know how you did that math. The liquid would be colloidal silver at 10ppm. Thanks Alex -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
