Density of Liquid Water {2022 update}

Definition

The density of liquid water is the weight of liquid water per its volume.

Formula

ρ = m / V

• ρ:  Density
• m: mass
• V: Volume

Density vs Specific Weight vs Specific Gravity

I would like to point out that there are conceptual differences between density, specific weight and specific gravity. Follow the link if you want to learn more about these differences.

With that said, this page will provide you the liquid water density in kg/m³ (SI unit), g/cm³, g/ml, kg/l, lb/ft³.

Density of Liquid Water (4° C, 1 atm)

𝛒 = 1 g/cm³

𝛒 = 1000 kg/m³

𝛒 = 1 g/ml
𝛒 = 1000 g/L

𝛒 = 62.428 lb/ft³
