    concentration of O₂ dissolved in H₂O can be written as ppm

    ppm stands for parts per million - mg/kg

    the amount of mg in 1 kg of solution

    the mass of O₂ - 0.008 g

    1000 mg equivalent to 1 g

    therefore mass of O₂ in mg - 0.008 g x 1000 mg/g = 8 mg

    the mass of water is 1000 g

    1000 g is equivalent to 1 kg

    mass of water in kg - 1000 g / 1000 g/kg = 1 kg

    there's 8 mg of O₂ in 1 kg of water

    therefore concentration of O₂ is - 8 mg/kg

    also can be written as 8 ppm

    answer is 8 ppm
