FAQ
What is the conversion factor from m³/kg to gal/lb (US)?
1 m³/kg equals 119.8264 gal/lb (US). To convert, multiply the value in cubic metres per kilogram by 119.8264.
How do I convert 1 m³/kg to gal/lb (US)?
1 m³/kg = 119.826 gal/lb (US). For any value, multiply by 119.8264.
How do I convert gal/lb (US) back to m³/kg?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.008345404. So 1 gal/lb (US) = 0.0083454 m³/kg.
When would I need to convert cubic metre per kilogram to US gallon per pound?
Specific-volume conversions between m³/kg and gal/lb (US) 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).
