Verified Answer :

Answer: The correct answer is (1).

Explanation:

Concentration of the solute in 1000 g of solution: 5 parts per million

1 part per million = 1 milligram/Liter

Then , 5 parts per million = 5 mg/liter

This means that 5 milligrams of solute is present in 1 liter solution.

1 gram = 1000 milligrams

Then 5 milligram = \(5\times \frac{1}{1000} g\) = 0.005 grams

Hence, 0.005 grams is the total mass of solute in 1000 grams of a solution having a concentration of 5 parts per million.

What are parts per million?

Parts per million (ppm) is how many parts a certain molecule or compound makes up within the one million parts of the whole solution.

Concentration of the solute in 1000 g of solution: 5 parts per million

1 part per million = 1 milligram/Liter

Then , 5 parts per million = 5 mg/liter

This means that 5 milligrams of solute is present in 1 liter solution.

1 gram = 1000 milligrams

Then 5 milligram = 5 X\(\frac{1}{1000g}\) = 0.005 grams.

Hence, 0.005 grams is the total mass of solute in 1000 grams of a solution having a concentration of 5 parts per million.
