Liters to Grams Liquid Nitrogen Calculator

Convert volume of liquid nitrogen (in liters) to mass (in grams) based on its density

Input Parameters

Default value: 0.807 g/mL (at -196°C)

Calculation Results

Calculation Results

Mass of Liquid Nitrogen (Grams):

Calculation Formula

Mass (g) = Volume (L) × Density (g/mL) × 1000

Where:
- Volume is in liters
- Density is in grams per milliliter
- The conversion factor 1000 is used to convert milliliters to liters

Liters to Grams Liquid Nitrogen Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Liters to Grams Liquid Nitrogen Calculator and its working principles

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Enter the volume of liquid nitrogen in liters in the first input field.
  2. You can optionally change the density of liquid nitrogen from its default value (0.807 g/mL at -196°C). The standard density of liquid nitrogen is approximately 0.807 g/mL at its boiling point of -196°C.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to convert the volume to mass.
  4. The result will be displayed in grams.

Working Principle

This calculator uses the basic formula: Mass = Volume × Density. Since we're converting from liters to grams, we need to account for the conversion between milliliters and liters (1 liter = 1000 milliliters). Therefore, the complete formula is:

Mass (g) = Volume (L) × Density (g/mL) × 1000

This calculation assumes that the liquid nitrogen is at its standard boiling point of -196°C, where its density is approximately 0.807 g/mL.

Applications

This calculator is useful in various scientific and industrial applications where precise measurements of liquid nitrogen are required, such as:

  • Cryogenics research
  • Liquid nitrogen storage and transportation
  • Industrial applications using liquid nitrogen as a coolant or refrigerant
  • Food processing and preservation

Important Notes

Liquid nitrogen is extremely cold (-196°C) and can cause severe frostbite upon contact with skin. Always handle liquid nitrogen with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including insulated gloves and face protection.
