When conversions are made the results should be rounded to a meaningful number of digits, relative to the accuracy of
original measurements. Values for weights and volumes are based on pure water at 4ûC. under 760 mm of atmospheric
pressure.
For additional conversion factors, or for greater accuracy, refer to National Bureau of Standards Misc. Publ. 233 or to the
Handbook of Chemistry and Physics.
