FAQ

What is the conversion factor from cm³/g to ft³/lb?
1 cm³/g equals 0.01601846 ft³/lb. To convert, multiply the value in cubic centimetres per gram by 0.01601846.
How do I convert 1 cm³/g to ft³/lb?
1 cm³/g = 0.0160185 ft³/lb. For any value, multiply by 0.01601846.
How do I convert ft³/lb back to cm³/g?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 62.42796. So 1 ft³/lb = 62.428 cm³/g.
When would I need to convert cubic centimetre per gram to cubic foot per pound?
Specific-volume conversions between cm³/g and ft³/lb arise in steam-table lookups, compressible-flow analysis, and thermodynamic state-point work. Specific volume is the reciprocal of density and must not be confused with it — m³/kg and ft³/lb appear directly in property tables and equation-of-state solvers.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
