Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on
convert-me.com FaceBook pageThank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

The density of water varies slightly with temperature, but at maximum density (4 degrees C), it is 1 g/mL, so 1200 g = 1200 mL = 1.2 L. At any other temperature, it would be slightly more. You can find density in references like the Handbook of Chemistry & Physics
