    First use the definition of ppm unit of concentration

    ppm = [grams of solute / grams of solution] * 1,000,000

    From that:

    grams of solute = ppm * grams of solution / 1,000,000

    Now, you need to find the grams of solution, for which you use the density of the solution and its volume:

    density = mass / volume = > mass = density * volume

    => mass of solution = 150.0 ml * 0.750 g / ml = 112.5 g

    And, finally, you can calculate the mass of solute

    grams of solute = 30 * 112.5 g / 1,000,000 = 0.003375g

    Answer: 0.003375 g
