How Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter Works?
The Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter works in 3 steps.
- 1
Enter the mass of nitrogen in kilograms (kg).
- 2
Keep 0.00125 kg/L for nitrogen at STP, or set 0.001165 kg/L for 20 °C (68 °F).
- 3
Read the nitrogen volume in liters (L), or cubic meters (m³) for bulk supply.
Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter Formula
The Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter formula is:
Volume (L) = Mass of nitrogen (kg) ÷ 0.00125 kg/LThe reverse formula is Mass (kg) = Volume of nitrogen (L) × 0.00125 kg/L.
Worked example
1 kg (2.2 lb) of nitrogen ÷ 0.00125 kg/L = 800 L (211.3 US gal, 0.8 m³).
Liquid nitrogen has a density of 0.807 kg/L at −196 °C (−321 °F). 1 L of liquid nitrogen expands into about 694 L of gas at 20 °C, a serious asphyxiation risk in small rooms.
Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter Conversion Table
The Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter table converts 10 masses of nitrogen from 0.01 kg (10 g) to 50 kg (110.2 lb) into liters (L), cubic meters (m³) and cubic feet (ft³) at a gas density of 1.25 g/L (1.25 kg/m³).
| Mass (kg) | Mass (lb) | Volume (L) | Volume (m³) | Volume (ft³) |

What is Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter?
The Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter is a calculator that converts nitrogen (N₂) from mass to gas volume at 1.25 g/L. Nitrogen makes up 78% of air by volume and is an inert gas in most uses.
Nitrogen is slightly lighter than air, at 1.25 g/L against 1.293 g/L at 0 °C. Industry produces nitrogen by air separation, pressure swing adsorption (PSA) or membranes.
What are the uses of Nitrogen kg to Liters Converter?
