Mass from volume (weight of a liquid or material)

Type a volume and pick the material (or type its density): you get the mass in kg, g, tonnes and pounds.

Mass from volume (weight of a liquid or material)

Inputs

Volume
2
Volume unit
liters (L)
Material
Olive oil

How it is calculated

Mass = volume (in m³) × density (in kg/m³).

In pounds

How it is calculated

  1. Mass = volume (in m³) × density (in kg/m³).
  2. 1 L = 0.001 m³; 1 mL = 1 cm³ = 0.000001 m³; 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg.
  3. The listed densities are typical values near 20 °C.

Example

2 L of olive oil (911 kg/m³): 0.002 m³ × 911 = 1.822 kg.

Good to know

  • Real materials vary (temperature, moisture in wood, alloy…). Type your own value if you know it.
  • For bulk goods (sand, gravel), the mass depends on how packed they are.

Sources

  • CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (rounded typical values)
