API, OpenAPI and WebMCP documentation

Explanation

Methanol density varies with temperature and purity. This page fixes one representative density for consistent planning calculations; laboratory or transfer work should use the actual material specification and reference temperature.

Multiply liters by 0.792 kilograms per liter using the fixed 792 kg/m³ density basis.

Reference & Scope

Use measured density when purity or temperature differs from the representative page basis.

Methodology

Methanol density and calculation basis

Evidence status: blocked.

Methanol density requires a documented purity and temperature.

temperature: 20 °C entry; page also repeats 0.791 at 25 °C

concentration: Anhydrous methanol, ≥99.75%

Source basis: Merck / Sigma-Aldrich, Methanol PMC1105, anhydrous, ≥99.75%. Product properties: density (two temperature entries). https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/US/en/product/sial/pmc1105 Applicability: conditional-comparison.

Review 792 versus reported 791 kg/m³; original conditions and source conflict unresolved.

Listing has two temperatures for the same value; not an independent temperature series.

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 0.792 kg per L.

Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.

Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Does methanol density change with temperature?

Yes. Temperature and purity affect density, so precise work needs condition-specific data.
