Kerosene density and calculation basis
Kerosene is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 810 kg/m^3, equivalent to 0.81 g/cm^3. Representative kerosene density near room temperature.
At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Kerosene corresponds to 0.81 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 1.234568 liters. Its table density is 18.8% lower than the 997 kg/m^3 water reference used in this dataset.
Among the 17 fixed table records labeled Liquids, the nearest density to Kerosene is Methanol at 792 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 18 kg/m^3 (2.2% relative to Kerosene). 5 records have a lower fixed density and 11 have a higher one. The observed range in this labeled group is Gasoline at 745 kg/m^3 to Honey at 1420 kg/m^3. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the materials are interchangeable.
For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.00337989 ton (US) per gal (US).
The fixed value supports repeatable calculations but is not a batch, grade, supplier, or laboratory specification. Use a measured or certified density when those conditions control the result.
