About Converting Drams per Cubic Centimeter to Short tons per Gallon
Dram per Cubic Centimeter and Short 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
short tons per gallon = drams per cubic centimeter × 0.00739338239062
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 dram per cubic centimeter equals 1771.84519531 base units, and 1 short ton per gallon equals 239652.854634 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct dram per cubic centimeter-to-short ton per gallon factor of 0.00739338239062.
Simple example
1 dr/cm3 × 0.007393382391 = 0.0073933824 ton/gal
1 dram per cubic centimeter = 0.0073933824 short tons per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 dr/cm3 × 0.007393382391 = 7.393382391 ton/gal
1,000 drams per cubic centimeter = 7.393382391 short tons per gallon.

Frequently asked questions
How many short tons per gallon are in 1 dram per cubic centimeter?
1 dram per cubic centimeter equals 0.0073933824 short tons per gallon, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert dram per cubic centimeter to short ton per gallon?
Multiply the dram per cubic centimeter value by 0.007393382391. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert short ton per gallon back to dram per cubic centimeter?
Use the reverse factor: 1 short ton per gallon equals 135.2560908 drams per cubic centimeter. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a dram per cubic centimeter?
Dram per Cubic Centimeter (dr/cm3) is a unit of density.
What is a short ton per gallon?
Short ton per Gallon (ton/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the dram per cubic centimeter to short ton per gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both dram per cubic centimeter and short ton per gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.007393382391 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.
