What does 1 Teragram per liter represent?

It represents a mass density equal to one teragram (10¹² grams) of mass per liter of volume, used mainly for extremely high mass densities in scientific models.

When should I use centigram per liter?

Centigram per liter is used to describe very low mass concentrations in fluids, such as trace substances in environmental monitoring or laboratory solutions.

Why is the converted value so large when converting Tg/L to cg/L?

Because 1 Tg/L equals 100 trillion cg/L, the conversion translates extremely high densities into much smaller units, resulting in very large numeric values.
