Question

How many drops of Water make One Litre?

Answer 1

A drop is defined as 1/60th of a teaspoon.  See that attached link.

Therefore there are 60 drops per teaspoon.  There are 3 teaspoons per tablespoon, so;

180 drops per tablespoon.  There are 16 tablespoons per cup so;

2880 drops per cups;

There are 4 cups per quart, so

11520 drops per quart;

and 4 quart per gallon, so;

46080 drops per gallon, and finally there are 3.785 liters per gallon so there are ---

12,174.4 drops in a liter.

Answer 2

Not a good measurement as droops are deferment size.

Answer 3

You know a milliliter (mL) is one cubic centimeter (cc) of volume.  I've heard that it takes about 20 drops to fill one up.  So, that would mean 20 000 per liter.

Answer 4

In a really stupid site without hyperlinks

http://www.medilexicon.com/medicaldictio...

a drop of water is described as equal to a minim

which is equal to a 1/60th of a fluidrachim

which is described as 1/8th of a fluidounce

or a teaspoonful or 3.70 ml in the US (less in UK)

  so 1/60 x 3.70 = 0.061667 ml

  which yields 16.27 drops per ml

Answer 5

1 ... if the drop is a litre in size

2 ... if each drop is half a litre...

2,000 ... if each drop is 0.5cc

[get the picture...?]

it depends on the size of the drop... "drop" is not a precise measure of volume so your question is impossible to answer.
