Convert Grams per cubic centimetre to Micrograms per litre
Convert Grams per cubic centimetre (g/cm³) to Micrograms per litre (µg/L) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µg/L = g/cm³ × 1000000000
About Grams per cubic centimetre
The gram per cubic centimetre (g/cm³) equals 1000 kg/m³, the most intuitive density unit in material science and chemistry. It equals 1 kg/L and 1 t/m³. Pure water at 4°C is 0.9998 g/cm³; aluminium 2.70 g/cm³; iron 7.87 g/cm³; gold 19.30 g/cm³; osmium 22.59 g/cm³. Polymer datasheets, mineralogy, and gemological tables routinely use g/cm³. 1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³ ≈62.428 lb/ft³.
About Micrograms per litre
The microgram per litre (µg/L) equals 10⁻⁶ kg/m³, numerically equal to mg/m³, and the standard unit for trace-level water quality. EPA maximum contaminant level for arsenic is 10 µg/L; WHO guideline for lead in drinking water is 10 µg/L; pharmaceutical water-for-injection requires total organic carbon below 500 µg/L. 1 µg/L = 10⁻⁶ kg/m³ = 1 mg/m³ = 1 ppb (mass) in dilute aqueous solutions.
