Solids has a constant concentration as the density of the solid is fixed. However, in the pollutant standard index for particulates and for toothpaste the concentration of calcium carbonate can vary.
This seems to contradict with the statement that solids have a constant concentration as toothpastes are said to be around 20% by mass of calcium carbonate. While for the PSI, the concentration of the solids are calculated in mass of particulates/volume of container.
So why is there a contradiction for this actually?
Thanks for the help :)
