A sample from one of Earth's oceans has a salinity of 34. What is the concentration of dissolved salts in this sample of seawater when expressed in ppmppm

Concentration of dissolved salts = 34,038.76 ppm

Explanation:

Given:

Salinity of ocean water = 34

Find:

Concentration of dissolved salts

Computation:

Salinity of ocean water = 34 g/l

1g/l = 1001.14 ppm

Concentration of dissolved salts = 1001.14 ppm x 34

Concentration of dissolved salts = 34,038.76 ppm

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
