Ethanol Liters to Kilograms
Snapshot
1 L of ethanol equals about 0.789 kg.
- Material basis: Ethanol at 789 kg/m^3.
- Example: For 10 L of ethanol, the result is about 7.89 kg with the same basis.

}Explanation
The converter converts ethanol volume into kilograms using one fixed density basis. In this converter, 1 liter of ethanol weighs about 0.789 kg, 2 liters weigh about 1.578 kg, and 10 liters weigh about 7.89 kg.
Ethanol density changes with temperature and concentration, so this converter keeps one explicit 0.789 kg/L reference basis rather than modeling every lab condition.

Methodology
Ethanol density and calculation basis
Evidence status: publishable.
Reference density for anhydrous ethanol at 20 °C; not for diluted alcoholic drinks.
temperature: 20 °C
concentration: Anhydrous ethanol, ≥99.5%, 200 proof
state: Liquid
Source basis: Merck / Sigma-Aldrich, Ethanol 459836, anhydrous, 200 proof, ≥99.5%. Properties: assay, form, density. https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/US/en/product/sial/459836 Applicability: adopted-context.
For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.789 kg per L.
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does ethanol density change with temperature?
Yes. Temperature and concentration can change density, so this page keeps one explicit reference basis.
