why we measure water in liters and oil in kgs? ..

Answer / francis felix

It is something related to viscosity. In normal temperature
oil will be more viscous than water . So the chance for air
trapping between water molecules in combatively less than
oil . If this air trapping phenomena is happened ,and you
are going for a volume measurement like litter .It may give
a false measurement . But measurement based in mass of
object will give exact measurement. The chance for this
error is more prone if the clement is cold.

Answer / tushar

It's Because the specific gravity of water is 1.
Which means 1 Kg of water has same mass as 1 ltr of water.
Same is true for milk and other low viscous fluids also...

Where is the price money ??? :)

why we measure water in liters and oil in kgs? ..

Answer / lvs

your answer: density.
density = mass / volume.

as volume can change with temprature, its better to measure
oil in kgs instead of lts.

water, milk etc exhibit very little change to temprature
variation unlike oil/ghee so its ok to measure them in lts

Answer / tushar

But, 1 Kg of Oil is not equal to 1 Ltr of it. My point is..
we can measure water in both units and both means the same
amount of water. It's just a matter of preference..

Try reading about Specific Gravity of fluids.. which
determine their mass distribution...
