What does 1 ton (short)/cubic yard represent?

It represents the density of a material with one short ton (2,000 pounds) spread over one cubic yard of volume.

When should I use microgram per liter units?

Microgram per liter is used to quantify very small mass concentrations, often for trace substances in water or biological fluids.

Can I convert any solid density to liquid concentration directly?

Conversions assume uniform density and may not be accurate for heterogeneous samples or mixtures with different phases.
