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 0.00023915 ton (US) per cup (US).

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