How much 35.6 M H2SO4 is needed to make a 1 L solution that is .007 ppm? Not sure how to convert from M to ppm-is there a formula?

.007 ppm. That is a very slight concentration, so you can safely assume one liter of solution has a mass of 1000grams.
So, to get .007 ppm in a million grams of solution, you need .007 grams of sulfuric acid, so in a liter (1000 grams) you need : 7E-6grams of acid.

7E-6grams=35.6*molmassAcid*Volumeneeded

volumeneeded=7E-6/(35.6*98)=2E-9liters=
= 2E-6ml

As shockingly small as this seems, remember that Acid Rain is about .01ppm.
