Read articleConvert Liters of Solid Ice (0°C) to KG
Solid Ice (0°C) weighs 0.917 kg per litre. Convert litres to kilograms (and back) using its exact density.
Quick Metrology Summary
1 liter of Solid Ice (0°C) weighs approximately 0.917 kilograms (or 917 grams) at standard room temperature. Because mass equals volume multiplied by density (\(m = V \times \rho\)), multiplying volume in liters by 0.917 gives the exact mass in kg.
Solid Ice (0°C): Weight per Litre Explained
Solid Ice (0°C) has a density of 0.917 kg/L, which makes it 8.3% lighter than water. Solid ice is about 8% less dense than liquid water, at 0.917 kg/L. This is why ice floats, and why frozen pipes burst.
When You Need This Conversion
Cold-chain loads, ice-block and rink planning, freezer sizing and estimating melt volume.
What Changes the Density
Slush, snow and crushed ice contain air and weigh far less per litre — fresh snow can be 0.1 kg/L or less.
How it works
Enter the litres of solid ice (0°c)
Type the volume in litres. The calculator is preset to Solid Ice (0°C) at 0.917 kg/L.
Switch direction if needed
Flip to kilograms → litres to find how much space a given weight of solid ice (0°c) takes up.

How to Convert Liters of Solid Ice (0°C) to Kilograms
Solid ice is about 8% less dense than liquid water, at 0.917 kg/L. This is why ice floats, and why frozen pipes burst. To convert, multiply the volume in litres by 0.917. To go the other way, divide the weight in kilograms by 0.917.
kg = Litres × 0.917
L = kg ÷ 0.917
1 L → 0.917 kg
10 L → 9.17 kg
100 L → 91.7 kgExample
Convert 5 litres of solid ice (0°c) to kilograms: 5 × 0.917 = 4.585 kg, or 10.11 lb. Reversed: 4.585 kg ÷ 0.917 = 5 L.
Worked examples
| Scenario | Calculation | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1 L of solid ice (0°c) | 1 × 0.917 kg/L | 0.917 kg |
| 5 L of solid ice (0°c) | 5 × 0.917 kg/L | 4.585 kg |
| 20 L of solid ice (0°c) | 20 × 0.917 kg/L | 18.34 kg |
| 100 L of solid ice (0°c) | 100 × 0.917 kg/L | 91.7 kg |
| 10 kg of solid ice (0°c) (reverse) | 10 ÷ 0.917 kg/L | 10.91 L |
