Convert Cubic centimetres per gram to Litres per kilogram
Convert Cubic centimetres per gram (cm³/g) to Litres per kilogram (L/kg) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
L/kg = cm³/g × 1
About Cubic centimetres per gram
The cubic centimetre per gram (cm³/g) equals 10⁻³ m³/kg, numerically identical to mL/g and L/kg. In thermodynamics, steam tables traditionally list specific volume in cm³/g: saturated steam at 100°C = 1671 cm³/g; water at 20°C = 1.0018 cm³/g. Polymer melt flow and food-science density data sheets also use cm³/g. 1 cm³/g = 10⁻³ m³/kg = 1 mL/g = 1 L/kg.
About Litres per kilogram
The litre per kilogram (L/kg) equals 10⁻³ m³/kg, coincidentally equal to cm³/g. Process engineers prefer L/kg when working with liquids: specific volume of liquid oxygen at −183°C = 0.876 L/kg; liquid hydrogen = 14.1 L/kg. HVAC refrigerant datasheets and cryogenic transfer calculations typically give specific volume in L/kg. 1 L/kg = 10⁻³ m³/kg = 1 cm³/g.
