How the formula works
Both nanogram per liter and centigram per liter measure the same physical quantity (mass per unit volume), so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in nanogram per liter by 1e-7 to get centigram per liter. To reverse the conversion, multiply a centigram per liter value by 1e7 to get back to nanogram per liter.
Frequently asked questions
What is Nanogram per Liter (ng/L)?
Nanogram per Liter (ng/L) expresses mass in nanogram per unit volume in liter, found by dividing a mass value by a volume value.
What is Centigram per Liter (cg/L)?
Centigram per Liter (cg/L) expresses mass in centigram per unit volume in liter, found by dividing a mass value by a volume value.
How do I convert nanogram per liter to centigram per liter?
Multiply the nanogram per liter value by 1e-7 to get the equivalent in centigram per liter. For example, 5 ng/L × 1e-7 = 5e-7 cg/L.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined using fixed metric and imperial conversion constants, so the factor 1e-7 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert centigram per liter back to nanogram per liter?
