Oh, dude, it's like converting microgram per gram to parts per million (ppm) is a piece of cake. All you gotta do is multiply micrograms per gram by 1000 to get parts per million because there are 1000 micrograms in a milligram. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

Ppm stands per parts per million. There are 1,000,000 micrograms in a gram. Therefore micrograms per gram is already ppm.
ppm means mg per litre. mg/l means 100ug/dl. Therefore there are 10 x 10 micrograms per decilitre in ppm. In other words, 10ug/dl is 0.1 ppm.
No, one percent is one part per 100. 1 ppm is equal to one part per 1,000,000. In other words, 1 PPM is 10,000 times smaller than 1%.
1 ppm is approximately 1gram per ton
Given that a liter of water does weight about a kilogram, there would be a million milligrams of water per liter, so yes, one milligram per liter does work out to be one part per million (ppm).
Write an equation representing the ppm concentration: ppm = mass solute (mg) ÷ volume solution (L) Extract the data from the question: mass solute (NaCl) = 0.0045 g. ... Convert the mass in grams to a mass in milligrams: mass NaCl = 0.0045 g = 0.0045 g × 1000 mg/g = 4.5 mg.
