About Converting Carats per Oil barrel to Short tons per Imperial gallon
Carat per Oil barrel and Short ton per Imperial gallon both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
short tons per imperial gallon = carats per oil barrel × 6.303908e-9
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 carat per oil barrel equals 0.00125796215409 base units, and 1 short ton per imperial gallon equals 199552.745326 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct carat per oil barrel-to-short ton per imperial gallon factor of 6.303908e-9.
Simple example
1 ct/bbl × 6.303908e-9 = 6.303908e-9 ton/imp gal
1 carat per oil barrel = 6.303908e-9 short tons per imperial gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 ct/bbl × 6.303908e-9 = 0.0000063039 ton/imp gal
1,000 carats per oil barrel = 0.0000063039 short tons per imperial gallon.
