Hi Yasmin,
The converter is doing the calculations based on water. For other liquids the calculations may be different, depending on the density of the liquid.
The formula is:
Density = Mass / VolumeDensity of water = 1 g/cc
1 l = 1000 ccSo the calculation for water will be:
1000 cc * 1 g/cc = 1000 g1000 g = 1 kg
If we want to calculate for mercury, then we have:
Density of mercury = 13.6 g/ccSo the calculation for mercury will be:
1000 cc * 13.6 g/cc = 13600 g13600 g = 13.6 kg
Hope this clarifies the confusion

Hi Dharini,
You have to know the density of the ultrasonic gel to make the conversion.
If you find out the density, then you can apply the formula explained above to Yasmin.
