Frequently Asked Questions

What does gram per liter (g/L) measure?
Gram per liter (g/L) is a mass-concentration unit indicating how many grams of a solute are present per liter of solution.

Where is pound per cubic foot (lb/ft^3) commonly used?
Pound per cubic foot is widely used in industrial settings to express fluid densities, chemical solution concentrations, and bulk densities of materials.

Can this tool be used for non-homogeneous mixtures?
No, the conversion is applicable only for uniform solutions; multi-phase or non-homogeneous mixtures may lead to inaccurate results.

Key Terminology

Gram per liter [g/L]
A unit that expresses mass concentration as grams of solute per liter of solution.
Pound per cubic foot [lb/ft^3]
An imperial unit describing mass concentration as pounds of substance per cubic foot of volume.
