Density conversion is the process of converting a value of density from one unit of measurement to another. Density is generally expressed as mass per unit volume, and its most common units are kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³), grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), pounds per cubic foot (lb/ft³), and others.
Common Density Units and Their Conversion:
- Kilograms per Cubic Meter (kg/m³) - The SI unit for density.
- Grams per Cubic Centimeter (g/cm³) - Common in scientific and laboratory contexts.
- Pounds per Cubic Foot (lb/ft³) - Common in the United States for materials like wood, concrete, etc.
- Grams per Milliliter (g/mL) - Equivalent to g/cm³ for most practical purposes.
- Pounds per Gallon (lb/gal) - Common for liquid densities, particularly in the US.
