What is the density of water at different temperatures?

[Edit]

See Related Links

At 4 °C, it's density is the greatest and is equal to 1.00 gram per milliliter. At any other temperature, its density is less than 1.

Water is unique in that it is one of the only substances that actually expands and becomes less dense as the temperature increases. Water molecules (H2O) have a special shape and arrangement; this is why ice floats above the warmer water underneath a frozen lake.

See the Related Link for "simetric" to the right for the answer. To convert grams/cm3 or grams/mL (1 cm3 = 1 mL) into other units, use these conversions:

1 dry ounce = 28.349 grams

1 fluid ounce = 29.574 mL

So to go from grams/cm3 to dry ounces per fluid ounce, multiply by 0.9586.
