About Converting Carats per Imperial gallon to Metric tons per Gallon
Carat per Imperial gallon and Metric ton per 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
metric tons per gallon = carats per imperial gallon × 1.665348e-7
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 carat per imperial gallon equals 0.0439938496598 base units, and 1 metric ton per gallon equals 264172.052358 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct carat per imperial gallon-to-metric ton per gallon factor of 1.665348e-7.
Simple example
1 ct/imp gal × 1.665348e-7 = 1.665348e-7 t/gal
1 carat per imperial gallon = 1.665348e-7 metric tons per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 ct/imp gal × 1.665348e-7 = 0.0001665348 t/gal
1,000 carats per imperial gallon = 0.0001665348 metric tons per gallon.

What is a carat per imperial gallon?
Carat per Imperial gallon (ct/imp gal) is a unit of density.
What is a metric ton per gallon?
Metric ton per Gallon (t/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the carat per imperial gallon to metric ton per gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both carat per imperial gallon and metric ton per gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1.665348e-7 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
