Answer:
B-100
Explanation:
ppm is an unit of concentration that could be defined as the mass in mg of solute (In this case, NaCl) per kg of solution.
Now, a solution of NaCl that is 0.01% by mass, contains 0.01g of NaCl in 100g of solution.
To solve this question, we must convert the mass of NaCl to mg and the mass of solution to kg:
Mass NaCl:
0.01g * (1000mg / 1g) = 10mg
Mass Solution:
100g * (1kg / 1000g) = 0.10kg
The ppm are:
10mg / 0.10kg =
100ppm
Right answer is:
B-100
