0.7 liters is approximately 1.54 pounds (lbs). This conversion helps to understand how volume relates to weight when considering liquids like water or other similar substances.
Since 1 liter of water weighs about 2.20462 pounds, multiplying 0.7 liters by this factor gives the weight in pounds, assuming the substance has a similar density to water. This approximation is useful for quick conversions involving liquids with comparable density.
Conversion Result
0.7 liters equals about 1.54 pounds.

Conversion Formula
The formula to convert liters to pounds is: weight (lbs) = volume (l) x density (lb/l). For water-like liquids, 1 liter weighs about 2.20462 pounds. So, multiplying the volume in liters by this factor gives the weight in pounds. For example, 1 liter x 2.20462 = 2.20462 lbs.
This works because the density of water is about 1 gram per milliliter, which equals 1 kilogram per liter. Since 1 kilogram is approximately 2.20462 pounds, the conversion uses this constant to translate volume to weight.
Conversion Example
- Convert 1 liter to lbs:
- 1 liter of water weighs roughly 2.20462 lbs.
- Convert 2 liters to lbs:
- 2 liters x 2.20462 = 4.40924 lbs.
- Convert 0.5 liters to lbs:
- 0.5 liters x 2.20462 = 1.10231 lbs.
- Convert 3 liters to lbs:
- 3 liters x 2.20462 = 6.61386 lbs.
- Convert 5 liters to lbs:
- 5 liters x 2.20462 = 11.0231 lbs.

Conversion Definitions
l
The liter (l) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1 cubic decimeter, used mainly for liquids and gases, with 1000 milliliters in one liter, and is widely used internationally for measuring liquid capacities.
lbs
Pounds (lbs) is a unit of weight in the imperial system, approximately equal to 0.453592 kilograms, used to measure mass or weight of objects, especially in the United States and other countries using imperial units.
Conversion FAQs
What does 0.7 liters weigh in pounds if the liquid is not water?
The weight of 0.7 liters depends on the liquid’s density. For example, oil is less dense than water, so 0.7 liters of oil weighs less than 1.54 lbs. To find the exact weight, multiply 0.7 by the specific density in lbs per liter.
How accurate is the conversion when using water as the reference?
The conversion assumes the liquid has a density similar to water’s 1 g/mL or 1 kg/L. For liquids with different densities, the actual weight in pounds can vary significantly, so adjustments are necessary based on the specific substance.
Can I convert other units like gallons to pounds using this method?
Yes, but you need to convert gallons to liters first (1 gallon ≈ 3.78541 liters), then apply the liters-to-pounds formula. Always consider the density of the substance, as this affects the weight calculation.
What if I want to convert 0.7 liters to ounces instead?
To convert liters to ounces, multiply by 33.814. For 0.7 liters, 0.7 x 33.814 ≈ 23.67 ounces. This is a different conversion, useful for measuring smaller quantities in fluid ounces.
Is the conversion affected by temperature or only by density?
The weight conversion is primarily affected by the density, which can vary with temperature. Warmer liquids may expand, slightly decreasing density, and thus affecting the weight, but for practical purposes, the standard density is often used.
