How many kilograms is 1 liter of 92 gasoline equal to?

According to the formula that weight equals density multiplied by volume, the density of 92 gasoline is 0.73kg/L, so one liter weighs 0.73 kilograms. Weight reference standards for different oil products: Different oil products have different densities, hence their weights vary. The average density of 90# gasoline is 0.72g/ml, which is 0.72kg/L; the density of 93# gasoline is 0.725g/ml, which is 0.725kg/L; the density of 97# gasoline is 0.737g/ml, which is 0.737kg/L. 92 gasoline: 92 gasoline refers to gasoline with an octane rating of 92, suitable for mid-range cars (with relatively low compression ratios). On December 18, 2013, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the National Standardization Administration jointly released the fifth-phase national standard for automotive gasoline. Classification of gasoline by use: Gasoline products can be divided into three main categories based on their uses: aviation gasoline, automotive gasoline, and solvent gasoline. The first two are primarily used as fuel for gasoline engines, widely used in cars, motorcycles, speedboats, helicopters, agricultural and forestry aircraft, etc., while the latter is used in the production of synthetic rubber, paint, grease, fragrances, and other products.
I remember studying automotive fuels, where 1 liter of 92-octane gasoline averages 1.5 catties. Specifically, since gasoline density typically ranges between 0.72-0.78 grams per milliliter, with a standard value of 0.75, multiplying 1000 milliliters by 0.75 yields 750 grams. Dividing by 500 grams per catty results in 1.5 catties. However, this isn’t a fixed value—temperature fluctuations cause variations. In winter, cold air compresses gasoline, potentially increasing density, while summer heat expansion slightly reduces it, leading to an actual weight difference of about 5-10%. In automotive design, engineers must account for fuel weight’s impact on vehicle load. For example, a full 60-liter tank equals 90 catties, cumulatively affecting suspension and fuel consumption marginally. Gasoline composition, such as ethanol content, also influences density, with lower-octane fuels occasionally showing minor differences. Thus, while daily refueling is billed by volume, understanding this conversion helps prevent calculation errors or maintenance deviations, ensuring stable vehicle performance. I’ll log data to optimize driving habits and reduce unnecessary fuel load.
