What does kilogram per cubic centimeter measure?

It measures density as mass in kilograms divided by volume in cubic centimeters, representing very high-density materials.

Why use milligram per liter instead of kilogram per cubic centimeter?

Milligram per liter is better suited for reporting mass concentration in dilute aqueous solutions and environmental monitoring.

Can this conversion be used for all types of materials?

No, kilogram/cubic centimeter is for extremely dense solids, while milligram/liter is for dilute liquid solutions, so usage depends on material context.
