Sulphuric Acid (Conc.) weighs 1.84 kg per litre. Convert litres to kilograms (and back) using its exact density.
Quick Metrology Summary
1 liter of Sulphuric Acid (Conc.) weighs approximately 1.84 kilograms (or 1840 grams) at standard room temperature. Because mass equals volume multiplied by density (\(m = V \times \rho\)), multiplying volume in liters by 1.84 gives the exact mass in kg.
Sulphuric Acid (Conc.): Weight per Litre Explained
Sulphuric Acid (Conc.) has a density of 1.84 kg/L, which makes it 84% heavier than water. Concentrated (98%) sulphuric acid is the densest commodity liquid on this site apart from mercury, at 1.84 kg/L. A one-litre bottle weighs nearly two kilograms.
When You Need This Conversion
Battery manufacture, fertiliser and chemical production, laboratory work and drain-cleaning products. Hazardous-goods shipping is declared in kilograms.
What Changes the Density
Diluted battery acid (about 35%) is only 1.26 kg/L. Always add acid to water, never the reverse, and use appropriate protective equipment.
How it works
Enter the litres of sulphuric acid (conc.)
Type the volume in litres. The calculator is preset to Sulphuric Acid (Conc.) at 1.84 kg/L.
Switch direction if needed
Flip to kilograms → litres to find how much space a given weight of sulphuric acid (conc.) takes up.

How to Convert Liters of Sulphuric Acid (Conc.) to Kilograms
Concentrated (98%) sulphuric acid is the densest commodity liquid on this site apart from mercury, at 1.84 kg/L. A one-litre bottle weighs nearly two kilograms. To convert, multiply the volume in litres by 1.84. To go the other way, divide the weight in kilograms by 1.84.
kg = Litres × 1.84
L = kg ÷ 1.84
1 L → 1.84 kg
10 L → 18.4 kg
100 L → 184 kgExample
Convert 5 litres of sulphuric acid (conc.) to kilograms: 5 × 1.84 = 9.2 kg, or 20.28 lb. Reversed: 9.2 kg ÷ 1.84 = 5 L.
Worked examples
| Scenario | Calculation | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1 L of sulphuric acid (conc.) | 1 × 1.84 kg/L | 1.84 kg |
| 5 L of sulphuric acid (conc.) | 5 × 1.84 kg/L | 9.2 kg |
| 20 L of sulphuric acid (conc.) | 20 × 1.84 kg/L | 36.8 kg |
| 100 L of sulphuric acid (conc.) | 100 × 1.84 kg/L | 184 kg |
| 10 kg of sulphuric acid (conc.) (reverse) | 10 ÷ 1.84 kg/L | 5.43 L |

2.5 × 1.84 = 4.6 kg of concentrated acid.
Battery acid is a diluted ~35% solution in water, so its density is around 1.26 kg/L instead of 1.84.
1 litre of sulphuric acid (conc.) weighs 1.84 kg (1840 grams, or 4.06 lb), using a density of 1.84 kg/L.
1 kg of sulphuric acid (conc.) is 0.543 litres. Divide the weight by the density: 1 ÷ 1.84 = 0.543.
Multiply the volume by 1.84. For example, 10 litres of sulphuric acid (conc.) is 18.4 kg and 50 litres is 92 kg.
