Calculation Formula

ppm = (Substance Amount in Gallons / Total Gallons) * 1,000,000

Where:
- ppm: Parts per million
- Substance Amount in Gallons: The volume of the substance in gallons
- Total Gallons: The total volume of the solution in gallons

Learn how to use the Gallons to parts per million calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the total volume of the solution in gallons in the "Gallons" field.
  2. Enter the volume of the substance in gallons in the "Substance Amount" field.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the concentration in parts per million (ppm).
  4. The result will be displayed in the "Result (ppm)" field.

Example

If you have 100 gallons of water and add 0.5 gallons of a chemical, the concentration in ppm can be calculated as follows:

ppm = (0.5 / 100) * 1,000,000 = 5,000 ppm
