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, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.00298669 t per gal (US).
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
