How Much does a liter of water weigh?View Messages“Well? I know that this is a dumb question.” 2:16:42 PM 10/08/03 “Never mind 2.2lbs” 2:31:07 PM 10/08/03 “I know a gallon of water weighs 8 lbs. and you get 3.785 liters to a gallon so a liter of water would weigh 2.11 lbs” 2:33:49 PM 10/08/03 “I know a gallon of water weighs 8 lbs. and you get 3.785 liters to a gallon so a liter of water would weigh 2.11 lbs” 2:35:58 PM 10/08/03 “I know a gallon of water weighs 8 lbs. and you get 3.785 liters to a gallon so a liter of water would weigh 2.114 lbs” 2:37:42 PM 10/08/03 “1 Litre = 1 Kilogram ..... ahhh the simplicity of metric ;-)” 2:47:58 PM 10/08/03 “Yeah but how many pounds in a Kilogram? Damn Metric system! I spent a year in school learning about the metric system it was going to be the next best thing since sliced bread. The next year it was like it never existed!” 3:08:41 PM 10/08/03 “llb = 0.454kg” 3:11:33 PM 10/08/03 “Actually a gallon of water weighs 8.3 lbs. So, a liter would weigh 2.19 lbs. But everyone knows, a liter of water in your belly weighs nothing as compared to a liter of water in your pack.” 3:14:42 PM 10/08/03 “I like to use my own blend of 'Impetric'. Some things are easier in Imperial measure and some are better in Metric” 3:15:16 PM 10/08/03 “About the same as a quart.” 3:42:27 PM 10/08/03 “sorry about the triple post the dang website ran so slow i didn't know anything got posted” 3:44:53 PM 10/08/03 “I was listening to the radio in the car last weekend and I have no idea what the station was, but they were giving the current local temperature in Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin.” 3:52:57 PM 10/08/03 “2.42lbs if it happens to be Heavy Water with the extra neutron in each Hydrogen atom. Otherwise 2.2lbs, a Quart is 2lbs except in true Imperial measure where a pint is 20oz not the ripoff 16oz as in America. Then a Quart is 2.5lbs.” 3:53:45 PM 10/08/03 “Yeah, TT has been slow today.” 4:03:08 PM 10/08/03 “way #&%!$ing slow. If this keeps up I may have to do some work.” 4:45:10 PM 10/08/03 “way #&%!$ing slow. If this keeps up I may have to do some work.” 4:45:10 PM 10/08/03 “Let's not confuse the TT loyalists. a can of beer = 12 ounces. a six pack has 6 beers. 6 X 12 = 2.13 liters” 6:34:49 PM 10/08/03 “6 X 12 = 1 drunk SOB” 6:48:02 PM 10/08/03 “Actually beer gets heavier after you drink it! Hence the saying ,Drink a pint=pee a quart! Streamweaver” 9:34:41 PM 10/08/03 “water// 1cc=1ml=1 gram” 9:07:48 AM 10/09/03 “Fresh or Salt Water?” 9:23:46 AM 10/09/03 “fresh at a temp between 1 and 99 degrees C.” 10:01:34 AM 10/09/03 “A gallon of water weights 8.34 lbs. There is 7.4 gallons in a square foot. There are .433 PSI per foot. Water math is the one thing that I know. Thats what happens when you work at a water plant for 6 years” 11:03:43 AM 10/09/03 “Perhaps 7.4 gallons in a CUBIC foot, but I knew what you meant.” 11:39:31 AM 10/09/03 “No, he meant square foot,,,,he worked in a waste water plant. Seeing #&%!$ a mile wide and an inch deep sort of skewed his perception somewhat.” 11:45:16 AM 10/09/03 “1 l. = 2.20482826#” 11:55:43 AM 10/09/03 “A square foot would only hold what water might cling from surface tension. Very little.” 12:28:14 PM 10/09/03 “Because water has a density of 1.0, one liter of water weighs 1,000 grams = 1 kilogram.” 12:42:45 PM 10/09/03 “LT, is your jetta a vr6 turbo or what?” 1:20:22 PM 10/09/03 “"A pint is a pound, the world around." A liter is just over two pints, so it weighs just over two pounds...witch is the 2.2 lbs mentioned a few posts back.” 9:52:13 PM 10/09/03 Phil “Is that a wicked witch or a good which?” 9:56:42 PM 10/09/03 “Phil, a pint is NOT a pound the World around. A pint is 20oz in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, A Pint is the primary measure for Beer in the UK. Dont go devaluing the beer measure.” 8:00:39 AM 10/10/03 “the 1 liter = 1 kilo is not an accident but deliberately designed into the metric system as a basic definition....” 8:46:33 AM 10/10/03 How much wood “would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would chuck wood?” 12:22:26 PM 5/24/04 “the density of water is 1” 12:30:17 PM 5/24/04 “If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. Where's the pint of pint of pickled peppers, Peter Piper picked? I am not a pheasant plucker nor a pheasant plucker's son. But I'll sit here plucking pheasants until the pheasant plucker comes.” 12:30:26 PM 5/24/04 “Manuka, was that pl supposed to be an F?” 12:35:31 PM 5/24/04 12:38:44 PM 5/24/04 “Trailslacker, only if the ph is just a P” 12:40:57 PM 5/24/04 12:42:26 PM 5/24/04 “Density of water varys with temperature and salinity. http://www.ucdsb.on.ca/tiss/stretton/chem2/data19.htm” 1:08:41 PM 5/24/04 “If i were in the UK and i ordered a Black & Tan.....would it be 10oz of Bass or 8oz of Bass? please help i am thirsty and want to order soon!” 1:17:59 PM 5/24/04 “10oz of Bass and 10oz of Guinness to make a REAL pint. Unless you are a woman, then you have the option of 1/2 pint. Ever wonder where the expression 1/2 pint came from ? a male who could not handle a whole pint.” 1:26:24 PM 5/24/04 “A Brit pint of beer is 20 fluid ounces.” 1:39:55 PM 5/24/04 “than how many fluid ounces in a pint of Cider?” 1:42:22 PM 5/24/04 “The best listing of conversions I have ever found. Printed out a copy and its been hanging in my cube at work for several years now. Must be over a thousand items listed.” 1:43:36 PM 5/24/04 “If a millipede a pint and a centaipede a quart then how nmuch would a precipice?” 2:07:25 PM 5/24/04 “Bad, Ped, bad BAD!!!! LOL!” 2:49:43 PM 5/24/04 A Liter Is Essentially A Pint “ A Pint Is A Pound The World Around”4:13:04 PM 5/24/04
