About Converting Centigrams per Teaspoon to Drams per Cubic Centimeter
Centigram per Teaspoon and Dram per Cubic Centimeter 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
drams per cubic centimeter = centigrams per teaspoon × 0.00114504436814
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centigram per teaspoon equals 2.02884136211 base units, and 1 dram per cubic centimeter equals 1771.84519531 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centigram per teaspoon-to-dram per cubic centimeter factor of 0.00114504436814.
Simple example
1 cg/tsp × 0.001145044368 = 0.0011450444 dr/cm3
1 centigram per teaspoon = 0.0011450444 drams per cubic centimeter.
Real-world example
1,000 cg/tsp × 0.001145044368 = 1.145044368 dr/cm3
1,000 centigrams per teaspoon = 1.145044368 drams per cubic centimeter.

Frequently asked questions
How many drams per cubic centimeter are in 1 centigram per teaspoon?
1 centigram per teaspoon equals 0.0011450444 drams per cubic centimeter, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centigram per teaspoon to dram per cubic centimeter?
Multiply the centigram per teaspoon value by 0.001145044368. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert dram per cubic centimeter back to centigram per teaspoon?
Use the reverse factor: 1 dram per cubic centimeter equals 873.3286044 centigrams per teaspoon. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centigram per teaspoon?
Centigram per Teaspoon (cg/tsp) is a unit of density.
What is a dram per cubic centimeter?
Dram per Cubic Centimeter (dr/cm3) is a unit of density.
Is the centigram per teaspoon to dram per cubic centimeter conversion exact?
Yes. Both centigram per teaspoon and dram per cubic centimeter are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.001145044368 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.
