Density of Water Formula
The density of water is calculated using the normal density formula,
D = M/V
where,
D is the density of the water
M is the mass of the water
V is the volume of the water
We know that,
At room temperature, if the volume of water is 1 ml then its mass is observed as 0.995 grams. Now the density of the water is,
D = mass/volume
= 0.995/1
= 0.995 g/ml = 0.995 g/cm3

Density of Water
Density of water is the ratio of the mass and volume of the water at room temperature is 998.2 kg/m3. The density of any substance is defined as the amount of mass present in the unit volume of the given substance.
For pure water, the density is 1 gm/cm3 or 1000 kg/m3. Pure water’s density varies with temperature and reaches its highest point at a temperature of 4 °C, or 1000 kg/m3.
The density of water is maximum at 4 °C.
