1. What is Diethyl Ether Density Calculator?

Definition: This calculator converts the density of diethyl ether from kg/m³ to g/mL.

Purpose: It helps chemists and laboratory professionals quickly convert between these common density units for diethyl ether.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ \rho = \frac{\rho_{kg/m³}}{1000} \]

Where:

\( \rho \) — Density in g/mL
\( \rho_{kg/m³} \) — Density in kg/m³

Explanation: Since 1 kg/m³ equals 0.001 g/mL, we divide the kg/m³ value by 1000 to get the density in g/mL.

3. Importance of Diethyl Ether Density

Details: Diethyl ether has a density of approximately 0.713 g/mL at 20°C. Accurate density measurements are crucial for:

Laboratory preparations
Chemical reactions
Solvent extraction processes
Safety calculations

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the density in kg/m³ (default 713 kg/m³ for diethyl ether at 20°C). The value must be > 0.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the typical density of diethyl ether?
A: Diethyl ether has a density of about 0.713 g/mL (713 kg/m³) at 20°C.

Q2: Why convert between kg/m³ and g/mL?
A: Different scientific fields and applications use different units, and conversion is often necessary for consistency.

Q3: Does temperature affect diethyl ether density?
A: Yes, density decreases with increasing temperature. The default value is for 20°C.

Q4: How precise is this conversion?
A: The conversion is mathematically exact (1 kg/m³ = 0.001 g/mL), but actual density depends on measurement accuracy.

Q5: Can I use this for other liquids?
A: Yes, the conversion formula works for any substance, but the default value is specific to diethyl ether.
