About UK gallons per pound

The UK gallon per pound (gal (UK)/lb) equals 0.00454609 / 0.45359237 ≈0.010022 m³/kg, historically used in British chemical and petroleum engineering. Specific volume of hydrocarbon solvents and lubricating oils appeared in gal (UK)/lb in pre-metric British Standards. 1 gal (UK)/lb = 8.327 L/kg ≈0.010022 m³/kg.

About Cubic metres per gram

The cubic metre per gram (m³/g) equals 1000 m³/kg, used for ultra-low-density media. Highly porous aerogels achieve apparent specific volumes of 0.5-10 m³/g; bulk activated-carbon specific volumes reach 1-3 m³/g per BET surface measurements. Atmospheric aerosol specific volume and trace-gas concentration calculations also employ m³/g. 1 m³/g = 1000 m³/kg = 10⁶ cm³/g.
