I don't understand why everyone suddenly panics when it comes to this. I mean, this
is science, but it's not rocket science.
For goodness sake, you're adding 5g of this stuff right? Well isn't that the same as 5000mg?
Suppose you and I won 5000 Euros in the lottery and my percentage of the winnings was 13.5%
How difficult would it be to figure out my share? I'm pretty sure you'd figure it out in less than 10 seconds, right?
Wouldn't it simply be 13.5% of 5000 - 0.135 x 5000? Isn't that just 675 Euro, or 675mg?
Suppose my share were only 9%. Wouldn't that just be 0.09 x 5000, or 450 Euro / 450mg?
How about a measly 3%. Wouldn't I get only 0.03 x 5000, or 150 Euro / 150mg?
So adding 5000mg (5g) of this stuff adds
680mg K
675mg Ca
150mg Mg
This is child's play isn't it?
The only part that might even remotely be considered "difficult" is realizing that ppm is the same as mg powder divided by Kg of water, or mg/Kg.
You'd
better know that 100L of water weighs 100Kg, by definition, because that's how the Kg was invented.
So, for K, as Darrel mentions, adding 5000mg of this powder will add 680mg/100Kg = 6.8ppm
For Ca, 675mg/100Kg = 6.75ppm
For Mg, 150mg/100Kg = 1.5ppm
C'mon people, you do these types of calculations every day. Lets keep it real.
Cheers,
