Convert Grams per cubic centimetre to Tonnes per cubic metre
Convert Grams per cubic centimetre (g/cm³) to Tonnes per cubic metre (t/m³) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
t/m³ = g/cm³ × 1
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 Tonnes per cubic metre
The tonne per cubic metre (t/m³) equals 1000 kg/m³, coincident with g/cm³ and kg/L. Geotechnical engineering specifies bulk unit weights in t/m³: saturated clay 1.8-2.2 t/m³, dry sand 1.4-1.7 t/m³, reinforced concrete 2.4-2.5 t/m³. Bulk-material handling uses t/m³ for conveyor and silo capacity calculations, yielding mass in tonnes directly from volume in m³. 1 t/m³ = 1000 kg/m³ = 1 g/cm³.
