Is the following comment correct (found on the "Kilogram per cubic metre" page)? "To convert from g/cm³ to kg/m³, multiply by 1000; divide by 1000 for the opposite conversion. A gram per litre is identical in value to kg/m³"

I was thinking it would be g * 1000, and cm * 100 (to covert to kg/m³). I would think kg/m³multiplied times 1000 would be g/mm³(mm instead of cm)? I'm no math wiz -- so I'm probably being clueless on this. Tesseract501@aol.com (27 August, 2005)

To go from kg/m³ to g/m³, you would multiply by 1000, since there are 1000g = 1kg

To go from g/m³ to g/mm³, you would divide by 1000³ since there are 1000mm = 1m

So you are correct that it's wrong but not quite as you said. Ian Cairns 02:42, 28 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

=g/cm3 convert Kg/m3

=(1/1000)/(1/100)3 =1000

nonsense definition

The definition in this article of kg/m^3 in the lead makes no sense. Please help correct the error by commenting at Talk:Gram_per_cubic_centimetre#nonsense_definition. Dondervogel 2 (talk) 09:49, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't even say what temperature and that's what I came here to look for. Density changes with temperature. 2A02:2F09:3706:CD00:313E:41DB:EA4A:1362 (talk) 19:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You seem confused. The unit kilogram per cubic metre is applicable at any temperature. The value of density changes with temperature, not the unit.--Srleffler (talk) 22:04, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
