Gases normally have a density of a few grams per liter (i.e., per cubic decimeter), at most. Air, for example, has a density of about 1.2 grams per liter, at standard temperature and pressure. The standard SI unit for density would be kilogram per cubic meter (which actually happens to be equivalent to grams per liter!), but many people are still accustomed to specify the density per liter, not per cubic meter.

How much is 1.25 liters?
A liter is a unit of volume, the same as a cubic decimeter.
What is 48 grams cubic meter?
A gram is a unit of mass. A cubic metre is a unit of volume. The two units are therefore incompatible.
What kinds of tools do scientists use to make measurements?
scientist use many tools but the most common is the tools in the SI unit and conversions-LENGTH meter,kilometer,decimeter,centimeter,millimeter,micrometer,nanometerVOLUME-cubic centimeter,liter,cubicmeter,millimeter MASS-kilogram,gram,milligram TEMPERTURE-kelvin,celsius scientist use many tools but the most common is the tools in the SI unit and conversions-LENGTH meter,kilometer,decimeter,centimeter,millimeter,micrometer,nanometerVOLUME-cubic centimeter,liter,cubicmeter,millimeter MASS-kilogram,gram,milligram TEMPERTURE-kelvin,celsius
Is decimeter bigger or smaller that a meter?
Smaller. Because it goes: Basic Unit: liter, gram, meter Deci: deciliter, decigram, decimeter Centi: centiliter, centigram, centimeter Milli: milliliter, milligram, millimeter
Why are milliter and cubic centimeters the same?
Every unit in the International Standards of Units ("SI units") has a universal standardized definition. By universal, it is used everywhere. For instance, a meter is defined as "Length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second (17th CGPM)" Yes. The definitions are usually pretty weird, but they stay consistent, which is important. Now, the reason why the milliliter and the cubic centimeter are the same is much simpler. The liter was originally created as another word for a cubic decimeter. Because there are 1000 milliliters in a liter, and 1000 cubic decimeters in a cubic centimeter[see note], a milliliter and a cubic centimeter and therefore, the same. Note: millimeter, centimeter, decimeter. While the centimeter is 10 times smaller than the decimeter, we are also dealing with cubic terms, so a cubic centimeter is therefore, 103 or 1000 times smaller than a cubic decimeter.
Liters is a unit of measure for which quantity?
Volume. A liter is the same as a cubic decimeter, or 1/1000 of a cubic meter.Volume. A liter is the same as a cubic decimeter, or 1/1000 of a cubic meter.Volume.

What is small unit of capacity?
In decreasing order: cubic decimeter = liter cubic centimeter = milliliter cubic millimeter
How much is 1.25 liters?
A liter is a unit of volume, the same as a cubic decimeter.
How many cubic meters are in a decimeter?
Cubic metre is a unit for a volume, a decimetre is a unit for a length. The two cannot be compared. What you can say is that 1 cubic decimetre is 0.001 cubic metre.
The liter is the standard unit for?
The liter is a unit of volume. The most basic SI unit for volume is the cubic meter; a liter, which is the same as a cubic decimeter, is the same as 1/1000 cubic meters,
What is the SI-derived unit for volume?
The cubic meter. Also, cubic decimeter (= liter), cubic centimeter (= milliliter), cubic millimeter, cubic kilometer, etc.
How many grams are in a decimeter?
A gram is a unit of mass. A decimetre is a unit of length. The two units are therefore incompatible.
A liter is defined as?
A metric unit of capacity (volume) equal to one cubic decimeter.
What is the possible units of volume?
The cube of any unit of length: cubic meter, cubic centimeter, cubic decimeter, cubic kilometer, cubic light-year, etc.
What happens to the unit for volume?
Such a unit is often derived from the unit of length, which is cubed. For example, in the SI, the official unit is the cubic meter; derived units include the cubic decimeter (a.k.a. the liter), and the cubic centimeter (a.k.a. the milliliter).
What is the unit for measuring volume in science?
The cubic meter. Also, multiples and submultiples are often used, such as the cubic kilometer, the cubic decimeter (= liter) and the cubic centimeter (= milliliter).
What is the SI derived unit for volume?
The cubic meter. Also, cubic decimeter (= liter), cubic centimeter (= milliliter), cubic millimeter, cubic kilometer, etc.
