Methodology

Copper density and calculation basis

Evidence status: publishable.

Representative room-temperature density of elemental copper; not an alloy value.

temperature: Room temperature (density glossary)

composition: Elemental copper

Source basis: Royal Society of Chemistry, Periodic Table: copper. Fact box: density; glossary defines density at room temperature. https://periodic-table.rsc.org/element/29/copper Applicability: adopted-context.

No purity percentage or exact density temperature supplied.

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 427.951526 cup (US) per ton (US).

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