About volume charge density units
Volume charge density is the electric charge per unit volume inside a region, such as a charged cloud, plasma or semiconductor. Its SI unit is the coulomb per cubic meter (C/m³).
Volume factors are the cube of length factors: 1 C/cm³ is exactly 10⁶ C/m³, while 1 C/L is exactly 1000 C/m³ because a liter is 0.001 m³.
Frequently asked questions
- How many C/m³ are in 1 C/cm³?
- Exactly 1,000,000 C/m³, because one cubic meter contains 10⁶ cubic centimeters.
- What symbol is used for volume charge density?
- Usually the Greek letter ρ (rho), the same letter used for mass density and resistivity, so check the context.
- How many coulombs per cubic centimeter are in one coulomb per cubic meter?
- One coulomb per cubic meter = 0.000001 C/cm³ (coulombs per cubic centimeter).
