Tons to Cubic Metre

I need to convert tons to cubic metres and I can't find that conversion anywhere. Can anyone help?

It depends on the substance. Every substance will have a different weight to volume conversion factor.

If you post the substance I may be able to look up the data.

The substance I'm looking at is MTBE. It has a specific gravity of .74 g/cm3. And I need to convert 1 ton to 1 m3.

It just so happens that gram/cubic centimeter is the same as tonne/cubic meter.

So something with a density of 0.74 gram/cubic centimeter you would:

tonne / 0.74 = cubic meters
cubic meters * 0.74 = tonnes

what is the value of cubic metre to tons?
or how many cubic metre in 1 ton?
or how many tons in 1 cubic metre?

crusher dust / Lillydale / crushed rock

top soil

1 ton of gravel = what in qubic metres

[Robert Fogt]

loose dry gravel has a density of about 95 pounds/cubic foot, wet is about 125 pounds/cubic foot.

1 ton = 2000 pounds
2000 pounds / 95 pounds/cubic foot = 21 cubic foot
21 cubic foot = 0.6 cubic meter

or how many cubic meters of sand is in 1 tonne

all i need is a convertion of 1 cubic meter of type 1 crush into tonnes loose and the same in a bulk bag
