What does milligram per cubic meter represent?

It expresses the mass of a substance in milligrams contained in one cubic meter of volume, commonly used to measure particles or aerosols per unit volume of air.

When should I use femtogram per liter units?

Femtogram per liter is used for ultratrace measurements of very small mass concentrations in liquids, such as biomarkers or nanomaterials at low levels.

Can I convert directly between these units for any substance?

Yes, but conversions assume consistent density units and are applicable mainly when comparing volumetric mass concentrations across different phases like air and water.
