Question

I would like to know the weight in kilograms of 1 litre of propane?

Answer 1

The specific gravity of propane liquid is 0.504; water is 1.

Therefore 1 litre of propane weighs 0.504kg. (1 litre of water weighs 1kg)

Answer 2

One litre = exactly 1000g regardless of what is being measured or weighed

Answer 3

Density propane at 25C;

493.53 kg/m^3 (0.001 m^3 / liter) = 0.4935 kg

Answer 4

The Specific Gravity of Propane liquid = 0.504.

Water Density = 1,000g/L.

Propane liquid = 1,000g/L x 0.504 = 504g/L = 0.504kg..

Hayley 67, Ignore the uninformed person dishing out 'thumbs down', you are perfectly correct.

I used to produce LPG (and LNG) in my job.

Answer 5

about 730grams

Answer 6

Assuming STP, then 1 mole of propane would occupy 22.4 litres.

So 1 litre would be 1/22.4 = 0.0446 moles of propane.

1 mole of propane has mass (3x 12) + (8x1) = 44 g

So 0.0446 moles of propane has mass = 0.0446 x 44 = 1.9624 g

Answer 7

You didn't say whether you want the liquid or gaseous weight.

Answer 8

specific gravity of propane is 0.504. So you have 0.504kg, because water 1 kg of water is equal to 1 liter and its specific gravity is 1 as a reference. The density of propane is also 0.5077kg/L as a liquid.

0.5077kg/L

Answer 9

Wouldn't we all?
