What does gram per cubic millimeter measure?

It measures mass density by indicating how many grams of mass are contained in each cubic millimeter of volume.

Why convert from gram per cubic millimeter to pound per cubic foot?

This conversion helps translate density values from metric microscale units into imperial units used in engineering and industrial contexts, aiding clear communication.

Are the converted values exact for all materials?

Converted values assume uniform density; materials with varying density may require more detailed measurements.
