Methodology

Water density and calculation basis

Evidence status: publishable.

Approximate density of air-free water at 25 °C, rounded to the nearest kg/m³.

temperature: 25 °C

composition: Air-free water

Source basis: NIST, NISTIR 7383 (2019), Selected Procedures for Volumetric Calibrations. GLP 10, Table 2, printed p.6 / PDF p.15, 25 °C air-free row. https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/ir/2019/NIST.IR.7383-2019.pdf 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 0.032501 lb per tbsp (US).

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