Answered by DrBob222
1 ppm = 1 part in 1,000,000 parts.
38 mg Pb = 0.038 g.
0.038g/300 g = ?? g Pb per 1 g water.
So ??g Pb per 1,000,000 g water?

A 900.0 g sample of sea water is found to contain 6.7 x 10-3 g Zn. Express this concentration in parts per million?

Isn't this the same kind of problem?

Answered by DrBob222
Guide you through it? Do it the same way as the first one. Calculate g Zn/g water, then convert to a million grams water.
