Density of Oceanic Crust 2022

Definition

The density of oceanic crust is the weight of the oceanic crust 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 oceanic crust density in kg/m³ (SI unit), g/cm³, g/ml, kg/l, lb/ft³.

Density of Oceanic Crust (Average)

𝛒 = 3.0 g/cm³

𝛒 = 3000 kg/m³

𝛒 = 3 g/ml
𝛒 = 3000 g/L

𝛒 = 187.284 lb/ft³
