Come to think of it, you are right. 1,000,000 divided by zero (no water) would be undefined.... One drop of water in a glass would allow a valid calculation with a high ppm. The bigger the chunk of silver the higher the ppm. Of course that wouldn't be a colloidal suspension, but it would be ppm particle.
The point was, FWIW, more silver particles that are bigger and bigger in water becomes less and less useful. My question was, why would we try and get a max ppm colloidal?

It would be one particle of pure silver with no water or anything else. It would result from putting pure solid silver in a container with no other substance. It would not be useful for our bodies. " No, Vince, ppm is calculated as a ratio of total amount of silver to a certain amount of water. If what you said above was true, every piece of silver by itself would be 1,000,000 ppm. __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
