Converting grams (g) to liters (l) depends on the substance's density. Density (ρ) is calculated as mass divided by volume (ρ = m/v). To convert, use the formula: Volume (l) = Mass (g) / Density (g/l). For water, 1 gram equals 1 milliliter (ml), so 1 g = 0.001 l. For other substances, find the density, usually in g/ml or g/cm³, and apply the formula.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What is the formula to convert grams to liters? The formula is Volume (l) = Mass (g) / Density (g/l).
  2. How do I find the density of a substance? Density is typically found on material data sheets or can be calculated as mass divided by volume.
  3. Is the conversion the same for all substances? No, different substances have different densities, which affects the conversion.
  4. How many liters are in a gram of water? 1 gram of water is equal to 0.001 liters.
