Post Concentration calculation: comparing gas phase and liquid phase??

I have a calibration curve for methyl salicylate (MeS) from Gas Chromatography (GC).
Calibration curve point taken into account are 1ppm , 10ppm, 100ppm vs. respective area from GC .
I am trying to bubble MeS gas into impinger in known solution at known amount of quantity.
From this solution I can get area from GC.
Question is how I can calculate concentration of MeS bubbled in impinger.
Points to be noted:
1) MeS used for calibration is in liquid state
2) Concentration of MeS stream to be calculated is in vapor phase
3) Molecular weight of MeS i 152.1494 g/mol
4) Same solution used as a solvent for preparing calibration curve and solvent in impinge
Things I can’t Do: Considering weight of impinge before and after bubbling (too many removable parts )
Some Reference:
1ppm = 0.001gm/Lit = 1mg/L
10ppm = 0.01gm/Lit = 10mg/L
100ppm = 0.1gm/Lit = 100mg/L
Below conversion useful if quantity is in gases state
The conversion equation is based on 25 ºC and 1 atmosphere:
X ppm = (Y mg/m3)(24.45)/(molecular weight)

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
