(Redirected from Kilograms per cubic meter)
'Kilogram per cubic metre' is the SI measure of density and is represented as kg/m³, where kg stands for kilogram and m³ stands for cubic metre. The density of water is about 1000 kg/m³ (and is exactly this at 277 K), since a cubic metre of water weighs about 1 megagram.
'kg/m³' is sometimes equivalently written as 'kg m^-3'.
To convert from g/cm³ to kg/m³, divide by 1,000 for grams to kilograms conversion and multiply by 100³ for the cm³ to m³ conversion, hence 1 g/cm³ equals 1000 kg/m³.
