1 quart milk weigh 976 g, 1 ounce weigh 28g, 1 cup weigh 244g.




As is typical these days, this questions was answered seemingly oblivious to the question asked. This person asked what a litre (maybe the British/French spelling confused answerer) of milk weighs. The beauty of the metric system is its relationship to water. A liter of water weighs 1 Kg (or 1000 g). Milk has a specific gravity of ~ 1.03 - ~1.05. This depends on temperature and fat content, among a few other variables. Full fat milk (3.6 - 4% milk fat) has a slightly lower SG than skim milk (which would be more obvious in non-homogenized milk, since the cream - i.e. fat - floats).


Bottom line answer: Whole Milk weighs ~ 1.03 Kg/l (1030 g/l) and Skim Milk weighs ~ 1.05 Kg/l (1050 g/l). (2% milk would be ~ midway between!)


Note: Since we have mixed and matched English and metric measurements throughout this answer, it may be noted that a liter of skim milk weighs almost 2 oz. more than a liter of water (where the 'ounce" refers to the unit of weight, not volume - another problem of the English system.) The old adage "a pint's a pound the world around" is simply not true - not only because it depends on a "pint of what," but also whether it's an Imperial or avoirdupois ounce/pint to which you refer.

How much liter equals to an gram?

A "litre" can weigh different amounts depending on what the litre is comprised of. For example, a litre of water will weigh more than a litre of chocolate mousse (more air in the mousse, but I admit the example's odd)... If you then dissolve a lot of sugar in the litre of water, it will weigh more than it did previously (the volume will also increase a little, some will have to be poured out to retain "1 litre", but it will not weigh what it did originally). So it is not possible to know how much of a litre weighs a gram without knowing what substance the litre is comprised of.
