Mass (weight) in kilograms (kg):
Density in
Volume in cubic meters (m³, cu m):
0.00m3
Density of some materials:
- Air ≈ 1.2 kg/m3
- Aluminum = 2700 kg/m3
- Concrete ≈ 2400 kg/m3
- Diesel ≈ 850 kg/m3,
- Gasoline (petrol) ≈ 710 kg/m3
- Steel = 7850 kg/m3
- Water (4°C) = 1000 kg/m3
How to convert from kg to m3?
The volume in cubic meters is equal to the mass (weight) in kilograms divided by the density in kilograms per cubic meter.
Formula:
V = m / p
V – volume in cubic meters (m3, cu m);
m – mass (weight) in kilograms (kg);
ρ – density in kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m3, kg/(cu m), kg m-3).
Example
Convert 10 kg to m3 if the density is 1000 kg/m3.
Solution: V = m / p = 10 / 1000 = 0.01 m3. Answer: 10 kg = 0.01 m3 (density = 1000 kg/m3)
