About Converting Pounds per Cubic Centimeter to Kilograms per Quart
Pound per Cubic Centimeter and Kilogram per Quart 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
kilograms per quart = pounds per cubic centimeter × 429.258475633
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 pound per cubic centimeter equals 453592.37 base units, and 1 kilogram per quart equals 1056.68820943 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct pound per cubic centimeter-to-kilogram per quart factor of 429.258475633.
Simple example
1 lb/cm3 × 429.2584756 = 429.2584756 kg/qt
1 pound per cubic centimeter = 429.2584756 kilograms per quart.
Real-world example
1,000 lb/cm3 × 429.2584756 = 429,258.4756 kg/qt
1,000 pounds per cubic centimeter = 429,258.4756 kilograms per quart.

Frequently asked questions
How many kilograms per quart are in 1 pound per cubic centimeter?
1 pound per cubic centimeter equals 429.2584756 kilograms per quart, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert pound per cubic centimeter to kilogram per quart?
Multiply the pound per cubic centimeter value by 429.2584756. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert kilogram per quart back to pound per cubic centimeter?
Use the reverse factor: 1 kilogram per quart equals 0.0023295987 pounds per cubic centimeter. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a pound per cubic centimeter?
Pound per Cubic Centimeter (lb/cm3) is a unit of density.
What is a kilogram per quart?
Kilogram per Quart (kg/qt) is a unit of density.
Is the pound per cubic centimeter to kilogram per quart conversion exact?
Yes. Both pound per cubic centimeter and kilogram per quart are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 429.2584756 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.
