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, volume is calculated as mass divided by density after normalizing the units to kilograms and cubic meters. The resulting page multiplier is 2.42994 cup (US) per lb.

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