Convert Gram per Cubic Meter to Specific Gravity
Type the number of grams per cubic meter that you wish to convert to specific gravity.
How to Convert Grams per Cubic Meter to Specific Gravity
The gram per cubic meter and specific gravity are both units of density. By definition, 1 specific gravity equals exactly 1000000 grams per cubic meter. This means to convert grams per cubic meter to specific gravity, you divide by 1000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 g/m³ to specific gravity:
We need to convert grams per cubic meter to specific gravity
Since 1 SG = 1000000 g/m³, divide by 1000000
5 ÷ 1000000 = 5e-6
5 g/m³ = 5e-6 SG

About These Units
Gram per Cubic Meter (g/m³)
Grams per cubic meter (g/m³) measures gas densities and aerosol concentrations. Air: ~1,225 g/m³. Hydrogen: ~90 g/m³. Used for air quality (PM2.5 in μg/m³), industrial emissions, and atmospheric science. Converts easily to mg/L.
Specific Gravity (SG)
Specific gravity (SG) is the dimensionless ratio of a substance's density to water at 4°C. Water = 1.0 by definition. Gasoline: 0.72-0.78. Honey: 1.4. Mercury: 13.6. Gold: 19.3. Also called relative density. Objects with SG < 1 float in water.
