What does grain/gallon (UK) measure?

It measures density as the mass of one avoirdupois grain per imperial (UK) gallon, commonly used to report water hardness.

Why convert grain/gallon (UK) to mg/cm³?

Converting to mg/cm³ allows integration of traditional UK units into scientific and engineering calculations using SI units.

Are there any limitations to this conversion?

Yes, conversion assumes uniform temperature and pressure and may involve minor errors due to the non-SI basis of grain/gallon (UK).
