What does milligram per cubic millimeter measure?

It measures density as the mass in milligrams divided by volume in cubic millimeters, often used for microscale solid samples.

When should I use milligram per liter units?

Milligram per liter is typically used to report concentrations of substances dissolved in liquids, such as nutrients or contaminants in water.

Is the conversion between mg/mm³ and mg/L always exact?

The conversion is numerically exact but practical usage must consider differences in phase, medium, and measurement context.
