Density of Liquid Calculator

Density Formula:

\[ \rho = \frac{m}{V} \]

Density (g/mL):

Definition: This calculator determines the density of a liquid based on its mass and volume.

Purpose: It helps scientists, engineers, and students quickly calculate liquid density for various applications.

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ \rho = \frac{m}{V} \]

Where:

Explanation: The mass of the liquid is divided by its volume to determine its density.

Details: Density is a fundamental physical property used to identify substances, calculate buoyancy, and design fluid systems.

Tips: Enter the mass in grams and volume in milliliters. All values must be > 0. For kg/m³ results, multiply g/mL by 1000.

Q1: What units does this calculator use?
A: The calculator uses grams for mass and milliliters for volume, resulting in g/mL density units.

Q2: How do I convert to kg/m³?
A: Multiply the g/mL result by 1000 to get kg/m³ (1 g/mL = 1000 kg/m³).

Q3: Does temperature affect density?
A: Yes, most liquids expand when heated (lower density) and contract when cooled (higher density).

Q4: What's the density of water?
A: Pure water at 4°C has a density of exactly 1 g/mL (1000 kg/m³).

Q5: Can I use this for gases or solids?
A: The formula works for any substance, but units may need adjustment (e.g., kg/m³ for gases).
