Accuracy and rounding
Density depends on both mass and volume. Confirm the material state, temperature, and pressure when precision matters.
Density units combine fixed mass and volume definitions. The numeric density of a real material can still vary with conditions.
For material calculations, keep enough kg/L precision for the final mass or volume and record the relevant conditions.

Common questions
How do I convert lb/gal to kg/L?
Enter the lb/gal value in the converter, or multiply by the factor shown in the formula. 1 lb/gal = 0.11983 kg/L.
What should I watch out for?
A material's density can change with temperature, pressure, moisture, or composition even though the unit factor is fixed.
Where does this density conversion come from?
