What does ounce per cubic foot measure?

It measures mass per unit volume using avoirdupois ounces over cubic feet, commonly applied in US customary systems for density.

When should I use centigram per liter?

This unit is suitable for describing very low mass concentrations in fluids, such as dissolved substances or trace environmental samples.

Is this conversion accurate for all materials?

Accuracy depends on input measurement precision, and centigram per liter may not be appropriate for high-density materials without further scaling.
