What does gram per cubic meter represent?

Gram per cubic meter (g/m^3) is a density unit showing the mass in grams within one cubic meter of volume, often used for airborne pollutant concentrations.

How is microgram per liter used?

Microgram per liter (µg/L) measures mass concentration in liquids, frequently used for detecting trace contaminants in water and biological fluids.

Why convert from g/m^3 to µg/L?

Converting helps compare pollutant levels measured in air to those in liquid media, facilitating analysis in environmental monitoring and industrial contexts.
