What does teragram per liter measure?

Teragram per liter measures mass density, representing one teragram of mass per liter of volume and is used for very large density values.

When should I use petagram per liter instead of teragram per liter?

Petagram per liter is appropriate when dealing with densities an order of magnitude larger than teragram per liter, such as in neutron star density modeling.

Is this conversion useful for everyday materials?

No, both units are intended for extremely high-density measurements in specialized scientific fields and not for typical laboratory materials.
