How to Convert Kilograms per Cubic Meter to Grams per Cubic Centimeter
To convert from kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³) to grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), you divide the density in kilograms per cubic meter by 1,000. For more information about kilograms per cubic meter as a unit of measurement, visit our kilograms per cubic meter page.
Formula
Grams per Cubic Centimeter = Kilograms per Cubic Meter / 1,000
or
g/cm³ = kg/m³ / 1,000
Examples
- 1 kg/m³ = 1 / 1,000 = 0.001 g/cm³
- 10 kg/m³ = 10 / 1,000 = 0.01 g/cm³
- 100 kg/m³ = 100 / 1,000 = 0.1 g/cm³
- 1,000 kg/m³ = 1,000 / 1,000 = 1 g/cm³
