there is so little difference that it is seldom even considered in normal applications. However, if you are dealing in very large quantities, you will find that sweeter wine is heavier and drier wine is lighter than water.

What is 400 ml in grams?

Millilitres equal grams of weight with water only....so in a cheffing situation for water, wine, vinegar etc. you could use a direct conversion....it's only when you use liquids that are heavier than water like oil that it makes a difference.....I hope this makes sense.

What is the weight of 1litre of wine?

The MASS of 1 liter of wine is slightly less than 1 kilogram. By definition, a liter of water (under certain assumptions about temperature and pressure) is exactly equal to 1 kilogram of mass. Wine is a mixture of mostly water, along with some alcohol, and minute quantities of other substances. Because water is the primary component, one would expect the mass of wine to be very close to that of water. But alcohol is somewhat less dense than water, so that part of the mixture has less weight than if it too was water. Therefore, because of the alchohol component of wine, the total density of wine must be slightly less than water, and therefore the mass of a given volume of wine will be slightly less than that of an identical volume of water.

A bottle of wine states that it is 11.5 alcohol What is the approxmate density of this wine?

You cannot calculate the density of a complex fluid like the mix of water, ethanol and sugar by a simple weighted average. Here are some estimations. The density of wine is close to that of water, dry wine is less, sweet wine is higher. Water has a density of 1.000 Kg/L Ethanol has a density of 0.789 Kg/L Sugar has a density of 1.587 Kg/L So wine with 13% alcohol by volume and 0.5% sugar by volume has a density of 0.13*789 + 0.005*1587 + 0.865*1000 = 975.5 Kg/L


How much does 1 liter of red wine weigh?

Specific gravity of dry wine is less than water, therefore 750ml of wine weighs 745g. (Alcohol is lighter than water). Sweet wines weigh slightly heavier because of the sugar content dissolved in the wine.

How many pounds does a gallon of wine weigh?

Between 8.34 and 9.0 pounds per US gallon, depending on the alcohol content (heavier for low alcohol wine). Water weighs about 8.34 pounds a gallon, and wine after fermenting may have the same specific gravity as water. Although the weight is increased by dissolved solids, it is reduced by the alcohol content, as alcohol weighs less than water. During the winemaking process, wine can weigh as much as 9 pounds or more.


What can you use instead of wine wine?

You can use equal parts dry sherry/pale sherry wine; not the cooking wine... the drinking wine. :)
