| Unit | Symbol | To cubic meter/kilogram (m³/kg) | From cubic meter/kilogram (m³/kg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cubic meter/kilogram | m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 1 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 1 m³/kg |
| Cubic centimeter/gram | cm³/g | 1 cm³/g = 0.001 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 1,000 cm³/g |
| Liter/kilogram | L/kg | 1 L/kg = 0.001 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 1,000 L/kg |
| Liter/gram | L/g | 1 L/g = 1 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 1 L/g |
| Cubic foot/pound | ft³/lb | 1 ft³/lb = 0.062427961 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 16.01846337 ft³/lb |
| Cubic inch/pound | in³/lb | 1 in³/lb = 3.6127292e-05 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 27,679.90471027 in³/lb |
| Cubic foot/slug | ft³/slug | 1 ft³/slug = 0.0019403203 m³/kg | 1 m³/kg = 515.37882689 ft³/slug |

Frequently asked questions
What units does this specific volume converter support?
It supports 8 units: Cubic meter/kilogram (m³/kg), Cubic centimeter/gram (cm³/g), Liter/kilogram (L/kg), Liter/gram (L/g), Cubic foot/pound (ft³/lb), Cubic inch/pound (in³/lb), Cubic foot/slug (ft³/slug), Gallon (US)/pound (gal/lb).
What is the base unit of specific volume?
The SI reference unit is the cubic meter/kilogram (m³/kg). Every conversion is computed by converting the input to the base unit, then from the base unit to the target unit, so chained precision is preserved.
Is this converter accurate?
Yes. Conversion factors use exact legal definitions where they exist (for example 1 in = 25.4 mm exactly) and CODATA/ISO constants otherwise. Results are shown to up to 10 significant figures.
