Hydrochloric Acid Volume to Weight Calculator

This calculator converts the volume of hydrochloric acid solution to its equivalent weight based on concentration and density.

Input Parameters

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

Weight (g) = Volume (mL) × Concentration (%) × Density (g/mL) / 100

Where:
- Volume is the volume of the hydrochloric acid solution in milliliters
- Concentration is the percentage of HCl by weight
- Density is the density of the hydrochloric acid solution in grams per milliliter

Hydrochloric Acid Volume to Weight Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the calculator to determine the weight of hydrochloric acid solution based on volume and concentration.

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Enter the volume of hydrochloric acid solution in milliliters (mL)
  2. Input the concentration of the solution as a percentage (typically 0-38% for hydrochloric acid)
  3. Provide the density of the hydrochloric acid solution in grams per milliliter (g/mL)
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to determine the weight of the solution

Working Principle

The calculator uses the formula:

Weight (g) = Volume (mL) × Concentration (%) × Density (g/mL) / 100

This calculation assumes that the concentration is expressed as a percentage of weight per volume, and the density is in g/mL. The result gives you the mass of HCl in the specified volume of solution.

Example

For a 25 mL sample of 12% hydrochloric acid with a density of 1.15 g/mL:

  • Volume = 25 mL
  • Concentration = 12%
  • Density = 1.15 g/mL
  • Weight = 25 × 12/100 × 1.15 = 3.45 g

Important Notes

  • Hydrochloric acid is a corrosive chemical that should be handled with appropriate safety precautions including gloves, goggles, and proper ventilation.
  • The density of hydrochloric acid varies with concentration and temperature, so always use the actual density of your specific solution.
  • This calculator provides approximate values and should not be used for critical applications without additional verification.
