About Gram per milliliter (g/mL)
A density unit numerically identical to g/cm³ (since 1 mL ≡ 1 cm³ exactly by SI definition). Gram per milliliter is the universal working unit in analytical chemistry, pharmacy, biology, and clinical laboratory medicine: liquid reagent specifications, drug formulation density data, USP / EP / JP / BP / IP pharmacopoeial monographs, hydrometer-based density measurement, and solution-preparation calculations (where mass-volume conversions are routine) all use g/mL. The CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics tabulates several thousand pure-liquid densities in g/mL at 20-25 °C. Pharmaceutical examples: glycerin 1.261 g/mL, propylene glycol 1.036 g/mL, USP-grade ethanol (96% v/v) 0.8161 g/mL at 20 °C. Lab/clinical examples: human blood 1.060 g/mL, urine 1.005-1.030 g/mL (used for diagnostic specific gravity). Convert g/mL to kg/m³ by multiplying by 1,000; to lb/gal by multiplying by 8.345.
About Pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³)
An imperial density unit (lbm/ft³, sometimes #/ft³) dominant in US construction, civil engineering, and oil-and-gas industries. Reference values: fresh water at 60 °F is 62.37 lb/ft³ (commonly rounded to 62.4 for engineering), sea water 64.0 lb/ft³, normal-weight concrete 150 lb/ft³ (ACI 318 default), lightweight structural concrete 105-125 lb/ft³, structural steel 490 lb/ft³, asphalt pavement 140-150 lb/ft³, lumber framing (SPF dimensional) 30-35 lb/ft³, fiberglass batt insulation 0.5-2.0 lb/ft³. Lb/ft³ appears explicitly in ASCE 7 dead-load tables (the US loading code), US residential plumbing water-hammer calculations, mineral-wool / fiberglass insulation product spec sheets, drilling-fluid specs (mud weight quoted as ppg = lb/gal but pressure-gradient math uses lb/ft³), and HVAC duct-design air-density corrections for altitude. Convert lb/ft³ to kg/m³ by multiplying by 16.018; to g/cm³ by multiplying by 0.01602.
