About Converting Carats per Liter to Stones per Gallon
Carat per Liter and Stone 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
stones per gallon = carats per liter × 0.0001192200636
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 carat per liter equals 0.2 base units, and 1 stone per gallon equals 1677.56998244 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct carat per liter-to-stone per gallon factor of 0.0001192200636.
Simple example
1 ct/L × 0.0001192200636 = 0.0001192201 st/gal
1 carat per liter = 0.0001192201 stones per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 ct/L × 0.0001192200636 = 0.1192200636 st/gal
1,000 carats per liter = 0.1192200636 stones per gallon.

Frequently asked questions
How many stones per gallon are in 1 carat per liter?
1 carat per liter equals 0.0001192201 stones per gallon, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert carat per liter to stone per gallon?
Multiply the carat per liter value by 0.0001192200636. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert stone per gallon back to carat per liter?

What is a carat per liter?
Carat per Liter (ct/L) is a unit of density.
What is a stone per gallon?
Stone per Gallon (st/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the carat per liter to stone per gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both carat per liter and stone per gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.0001192200636 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.
