About Converting Grams per Tablespoon to Carats per Liter
Gram per Tablespoon and Carat per Liter 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
carats per liter = grams per tablespoon × 338.140227018
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gram per tablespoon equals 67.6280454037 base units, and 1 carat per liter equals 0.2 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gram per tablespoon-to-carat per liter factor of 338.140227018.
Simple example
1 g/tbsp × 338.140227 = 338.140227 ct/L
1 gram per tablespoon = 338.140227 carats per liter.
Real-world example
1,000 g/tbsp × 338.140227 = 338,140.227 ct/L
1,000 grams per tablespoon = 338,140.227 carats per liter.

How do I convert carat per liter back to gram per tablespoon?
Use the reverse factor: 1 carat per liter equals 0.002957353 grams per tablespoon. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a gram per tablespoon?
Gram per Tablespoon (g/tbsp) is a unit of density.
What is a carat per liter?
Carat per Liter (ct/L) is a unit of density.
Is the gram per tablespoon to carat per liter conversion exact?
Yes. Both gram per tablespoon and carat per liter are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 338.140227 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.
