Can liters be converted grams?

Answer 1

litres measure volume
grams measures weight

different liquids, (or volume of any substances, liquid, or solid, or gaseous) will have different weights, comparing same amount of volume

a litre of feathers or a litre of air will weigh less than a litre of sand or a litre of water.

pure volume does not convert to weight consistently for all things.

Answer 2

I would recommend doing a separation of the liquids and calculating the densities independently. (A separation funnel should do the trick.) It seems that you are attempting to positively identify the substances. I wouldn't know the expected density of the methamphetamine, but for water, the density at 4 Celsius (39 Fahrenheit) is 1 gram per milliliter, or 1000 grams per liter. At other temperatures where water is a liquid, the density will be less, but not by a large amount.

Answer 3

Liters cannot be converted to grams since they measure volume and grams measure weight. What you can do is to find the weight of a liquid by using the formula:

density(gr/cm3)*volume(cm3)=mass(gr)

So for instance if you're working with water, the density would be 1, so the volume would be 1*Volume=Mass, so volume would be equal to mass, but since volume is in cm3, first of all you have to multiply the number of liters *1000, since 1000cm3=1 liter. Remember that this is only for water! The general formula would be then:

Density (gr/cm3)*(1000*Volume (Liters)=Mass (Grams)

Answer 4

Yes. Liters measure volume and grams measure weight. If you know the density of the subject of the measure you may convert it. One liter of pure water weights one kilogram (tap water weights a little more).

Answer 5

Obviously all your answers came from Americans who unlike the rest of the world cannot figure out the Metric system, and only speak English???

I am from Canada and proud of it, correct a Litre is liquid but none of the rock scientist who answered before know liquid does weigh something, 1 litre is equal to 1000 grams, equal to 33.8 oz in Imperial measurement, a kilogram being 2.025 pounds, just a little lesson in Metric measurment.

Answer 6

Sure. Go to Google. Type "convert litres grams". You'll get a calculator that is easy to use.

Answer 7

Liter is a volume measurement.
Gram is a weight measurement.
I would say you can't convert volume to weight.

Answer 8

if it's for water, 1 liter = 1 kilogram.
for other liquids, you'll need their specific density

Answer 9

only if you know the density of the material
