molarity
____________ M
parts per million
_____________ ppm

Explanation / Answer

         0.85 x 10-6 moles of K+ ions in 10-3 L .                                  M= (0.85 x 10-6) / 10-3                                                =0.85 x 10 -3 M          0.85x 10-6 mol of K+ions in 1 mL of solution 0.85 mol of K+ in106 mL solution ppm                 0.85 ppm                                                =0.85 x 10 -3 M          0.85x 10-6 mol of K+ions in 1 mL of solution 0.85 mol of K+ in106 mL solution ppm                 0.85 ppm
