Grams Into Liters

I would recommend doing a separation of the liquids and calculating the densities independently. (A separation funnel should do the trick.) It seems that you are attempting to positively identify the substances. I wouldn't know the expected density of the methamphetamine, but for water, the density at 4 Celsius (39 Fahrenheit) is 1 gram per milliliter, or 1000 grams per liter. At other temperatures where water is a liquid, the density will be less, but not by a large amount.

well actually you cannot convert that because grams are mass and litre is volume.
What you can do is to traduce the mass to litre or the other way around but for this you would need to know the density of the substance or materials you are working with.
M = V. D or V = M/D

It depends on the density of the liquid you're measuring. If it's water, the density is 1, and there are 1000 grams to a liter. For most liquids, the density is pretty close to 1.
1000 divided by density is the number of grams per liter. So if the density is 2, there are 500 grams in a liter.

ONLY if you are dealing with WATER, you can convert the grams to liters....1 gram of water is 1ml, so 1000 g of water makes 1 liter
grams measure mass which is similar to weight
liters measures liquid volume
luckily 1 g of water is 1 ml or 1 cc

Making the assumption that You are considering liqids-
water has the property that its weight (metric) is equal to its volume. One liter weighs 1 Kg. one ml weighs one g etc. Other liquids may weigh less or more than the equivalent volume of water. This is what is known as specific gravity. You must know the specific gravity of a solution before its weight per volume can be calculated. This can be gotten from tables such as are found in a CRC handbook or some will be in a chemistry text.

grams is Mass.
Litres is Volume.
Most people use this interchangeably because most day to day items are mostly water, which has the density on one.
When the density is 1, and around room temperture, one gram is equal to one cc., and one cc, is one thusandth of a litre.
So 1000 gram, or 1 kilo gram is equal to one litre.
Just try to remember this only works with water., and not anything else

Grams is a weight measure and liters is a liquid measure, so the density of the liquid must be taken into account.
Liters of a liquid = (weight of the liquid in grams) / (density of the liquid in grams/L)

You can't. Gram is a mass unit, litre is a volume unit.

Don't grams refer to weight and liters refer to volume? In that case, you can't convert from grams to liters.
