I'm not an expert, but I found a paper that surveyed the indoor air concentration of various pollutants in homes. The lower number is mid-range of measurements, while the higher number is the upper bound.
chloroform: 30–100 μg/m³
benzene: 2–10 μg/m³
A volume reference might also be handy. An 800 sq ft apartment (~80m²) with a ceiling height of 8ft (~2.5m) is ~200m³.
