Understanding Volume to Mass Conversion

How the Conversion Works

Converting from liters (volume) to kilograms (mass) requires knowing the density of the substance. The formula used is:
Mass (kg) = Volume (L) × Density (kg/L)

Common Densities

  • Water: 1.00 kg/L (at 4°C)
  • Milk: 1.03 kg/L
  • Olive Oil: 0.92 kg/L
  • Honey: 1.26 kg/L
  • Ethanol: 0.79 kg/L

Practical Applications

This conversion is essential in:
• Cooking and baking when recipes mix volume and weight measurements
• Chemical calculations and laboratory work
• Industrial processes and manufacturing
• Shipping and logistics calculations
