The density of petroleum diesel is about 0.85 kg/l whereas petrol (gasoline) has a density of about 0.72 kg/l, about 15% less
diesel
The density of diesel is typically measured using a hydrometer or a densitometer. These instruments determine the density of the diesel fuel by measuring the buoyancy or the refractive index of the liquid. Density can also be calculated by dividing the mass of a given volume of diesel by that volume.
The formula to calculate diesel quantity in liters using density and weight is: Volume (liters) = Weight (kg) / Density (kg/l). First, determine the weight of the diesel in kilograms. Then, divide the weight by the density of the diesel in kilograms per liter to find the volume in liters. This formula is essential for accurately measuring and managing diesel fuel quantities in various applications.
100 DENSITY thats it..
The density of diesel fuel is typically around 0.85 kg/L. Therefore, the density of 10000 liters of diesel would be 8500 kg.
The density of petroleum diesel fuel is about 0.85 kilograms per litre (7.09 pounds per gallon).
Kerosene is lighter than diesel. Diesel has a higher density and is thus heavier than kerosene.
A typical value of Diesel fuel density is 0,832 g/cm3.But must be mentioned that the density may be different for each refinery.
The density of petroleum diesel is about 0.85 kg/l

For a diesel with a density of 843 kg/m3 @ 15.6°C, the density at 80°C would be 803 kg/m3. For reference, the EURO-V specification for diesel requires a specific gravity of 0.820 to 0.845 @ 15.6°C. The diesel above is on the heavier side of the specification. Since the composition of diesel may depend on local specifications, the composition and density may vary for region to region and even refinery to refinery.
