What does ounce per cubic inch measure?

Ounce per cubic inch (oz/in^3) measures density by expressing mass in ounces per unit volume in cubic inches, commonly used in U.S. customary contexts.

Why convert oz/in^3 to hg/L?

Conversion from oz/in^3 to hg/L enables translation of density values from imperial to metric units, which is important for international standards, scientific calculations, and compatibility with SI units.

Is hectogram per liter suitable for solids?

Hectogram per liter is primarily intended for liquids and solutions. When used for solids, one should ensure consistent volume definitions are applied to maintain accuracy.
