What does milligram per cubic millimeter represent?

Milligram per cubic millimeter (mg/mm³) expresses mass in milligrams divided by volume in cubic millimeters and is used for microscale density measurements.

When should I use petagram per liter for density?

Petagram per liter (Pg/L) is suitable for describing extremely large mass concentrations, such as neutron stars or nuclear matter.

Why are conversions from mg/mm³ to Pg/L often very small numbers?

Because petagram per liter measures vastly larger scales, converting small-scale densities like mg/mm³ results in tiny numeric values.
