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
