Methodology
Ice density and calculation basis
Evidence status: publishable.
Approximate density of ice Ih at its normal-pressure melting point, rounded to the nearest kg/m³.
temperature: 273.152519 K
pressure: 101325 Pa
state: Hexagonal ice Ih, ordinary H2O
Source basis: IAPWS, R10-06(2009): Equation of State 2006 for H2O Ice Ih. Table 6, PDF p.12, normal-pressure melting point. https://iapws.org/technical-guidance/release/Ice-2009.download 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 0.00021695 t per cup (US).
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
