How the Density of Common Liquids Table works?
This table presents the density of some common liquids and his temperature.
Conversions are performed by using a density conversion factor. By knowing the density conversion factor, converting between units can become a simple multiplication problem. Density itself is defined as how much mass a substance has in a specific volume.
Usually, gases have a lower density than liquids because they have less cohesive particles, and these in turn less than solids. Although there are exceptions, usually increasing the temperature decreases density.
