How much does 1 liter of propane weigh in pounds?

Answer 1

A gallon of Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) weighs 4.23 lbs (source:wikipedia & Yahoo!answers). Note that at "normal" temperatures (above it's natural boiling point of -40F) and pressures (propane is normally stored as a liquid by storing under pressures in the vicinity of 250-300psi), propane is a gas. As a gas, it's mass (or weight for most people living on Earth) is significantly less. Most "propane weight" discussions refer to LPG, but it's important to point out there is a difference in mass, therefore weight, between liquid propane and gaseous propane.

Answer 2

We have to assume that you're talking about propane in its liquid state (under pressure) and, even then, the density of liquid propane varies depending on temperature, so any answer is going to be approximate. At 20 degrees C, 1 liter of propane would be about 0.5 kg.

Answer 3

Propane weighs about 4.125 pounds per gallon

or about 1.12 pounds per Litre

Answer 4

Propane weighs about 4.2 pounds per US gallon at 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Propane expands 1.5% per 10 degrees F.

Answer 5

That depends upon its temperature and pressure.

Answer 6

A litre of gasoline weights 0.76 kg. and produces 2.356 kg. of CO2

Of course 1 Kg.

Answer 7

I have been told that a 19kg canister of propane gas will contain 40 litres of gas. I am wanting to check this out

Answer 8

That's going to depend on which one of the hundreds of different gases it is,

and on the pressure and the temperature inside the litre.

Answer 9

One liter of propane weighs approximately 1.96 pounds.
