A sampling of 30 million particles coming from an exhaust vent contained 60 sulfur dioxide molecules. What is another way of expressing this concentration of sulfur dioxide using this information?

B.) 50%

C.) 2 ppb

D.) 12,000 g/L

Answer:

  • Option A.) 2 ppm

Explanation:

60 particles in 30 million can be expressed as a fraction:

  • [tex]\frac{60}{30million}[/tex]

And, dividing both numerator and denominator by 30, that can be simplified as:

  • [tex]\frac{2}{1million}[/tex]

That means 2 particles of sulfur dioxide in 1 million particles of sample, which is 2 parts per million or 2 ppm, which is the option A.
