Unit Description
Gram per Cubic Centimeter (g/cm³)
Definition
Gram per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) is a unit of density expressing the mass in grams contained in one cubic centimeter of volume. It is numerically equivalent to grams per milliliter and provides a convenient scale for most materials.
History
The g/cm³ unit developed alongside the metric system and became widely adopted because it provides convenient numerical values for most common materials. Water has a density of approximately 1 g/cm³, making it an intuitive reference point for density comparisons.
Current Use
G/cm³ is commonly used in materials science, geology, manufacturing, and education. It's standard for reporting density of solids, minerals, metals, and polymers. Many material property databases and engineering references use g/cm³ for material specifications.
Gram per Milliliter (g/mL)
Definition
Gram per milliliter (g/mL) is a unit of density expressing the mass in grams contained in one milliliter of volume. It is numerically equivalent to grams per cubic centimeter and is commonly used for liquids and small volume measurements.
History
The g/mL unit emerged with the development of the metric system and became particularly important in chemistry and medicine. It gained prominence as laboratory work required precise density measurements for solutions, pharmaceuticals, and chemical compounds in small volumes.
Current Use
G/mL is extensively used in chemistry, pharmacology, medicine, and laboratory sciences. It's standard for measuring density of solutions, medications, biological fluids, and chemical reagents. Medical laboratories use it for urine specific gravity, blood components, and pharmaceutical preparations.
