«Partie par 1012 en volume». On aura compris qu'ici le mot «partie» ne fait que prendre la place du chiffre exprimant le nombre de particules en cause. Ainsi, une concentration de 5 particules par billion en volume s'écrira comme suit : 5 p.p. 1012 en volume, ou 5 X 10-12, ou encore 5 p/1012 en volume. 4, record 1, French, - partie%20par%2010%5Bexposant%2012%5D%20en%20volume
