What is Grams?

Grams, often abbreviated as "g," is a unit of mass in the metric system. It is used to measure the amount of matter in an object. One gram is approximately equal to the mass of a cubic centimetre of water at 4 degrees Celsius.

History of Grams

The Gram has an interesting historical background. It was introduced in the late 18th century during the French Revolution. The French National Assembly commissioned a group to create a new system of measurement, which included the metric system. In 1799, the gram was officially defined as the mass of one cubic centimetre of water.

What is Liter?

A litre (or litre) is a unit of volume in the metric system. It is used to measure the amount of space occupied by a substance. One litre is equal to one cubic decimeter or 1000 cubic centimetres.

History of Liter

The litre has its roots in the metric system, just like the gram. The metric system was developed during the French Revolution, and the litre was introduced as a unit of volume in the late 18th century. It was defined as the volume occupied by one kilogram of pure water at its maximum density.

How Many Grams to Liters – Formula

To convert grams to litres, you need to know the density of the substance in question. Density is defined as mass per unit volume and is typically expressed in grams per litre (g/L). The formula for converting grams to litres using density is:

Liters=GramsDensityLiters=DensityGrams​

How to Convert Grams to Liters

Converting grams to liters involves using the density of the substance. First, obtain the density of the material in grams per liter from a reliable source such as a lab manual or a trusted online resource. Then, apply the formula mentioned above to calculate the volume in litres.

Grams to Liters Conversion Example

Let's illustrate this with an example. Suppose we have a substance with a density of $2\text{g/L}$ and we have $500\text{grams}$ of the substance. To convert grams to liters, we'd use the formula:

Liters=500 grams2 g/L=250 litersLiters=2g/L500grams​=250liters
