Converting milligrams per liter (mg/l) to milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) involves a simple conversion using the density of water. The density of water is approximately 1 gram per milliliter (g/ml) or 1,000 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
To convert mg/l to mg/kg, you need to multiply the value in mg/l by 1,000. Here's the conversion formula:
mg/kg = mg/l * 1,000
For example, if you have a concentration of 5 mg/l, the conversion to mg/kg would be:
5 mg/l * 1,000 = 5,000 mg/kg
So, 5 milligrams per liter is equivalent to 5,000 milligrams per kilogram.
Converting from milligrams per liter (mg/l) to milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) involves multiplying the mg/l value by 1,000. This is because there are 1,000 liters in 1 cubic meter (m³), and 1 m³ of water weighs 1,000 kilograms (kg).
The formula for the conversion is:
mg/kg = mg/l × 1,000
For example, if you have a concentration of 50 mg/l, the conversion to mg/kg would be:
