Why convert from petagram/liter to kilogram/liter?

Converting allows expressing extremely large densities in more familiar units that are widely used in science and industry, facilitating better comparisons and understanding.

Where is petagram/liter commonly used?

Petagram per liter measures very high mass densities frequently encountered in astrophysics, nuclear physics, and high-energy theoretical research.

Is kilogram per liter suitable for all density measurements?

Kilogram per liter suits most common densities but may not be practical for representing extraordinarily high densities like those measured in petagrams per liter.
