ppm
mg/L
1 ppm = 1 mg/L
Full precision:1 mg/L
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 ppm to mg/l, we multiply by 1 because one parts per million equals exactly 1 mg/l.
1 parts per million = 1 mg/l
Since each parts per million contains 1 mg/l, we multiply our value by this factor:
1 × 1 = 1 mg/l
So 1 ppm = 1 mg/l.
Quick check: 1 ÷ 1 = 1 ppm
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 ppm = 1 mg/L
1 × 1 = 1
1 × 1 = 1
Example 2: 5 ppm = 5 mg/L
5 × 1 = 5
5 × 1 = 5
Example 3: 10 ppm = 10 mg/L
10 × 1 = 10
10 × 1 = 10
