Only 1 Liter of water weighs 1000 grams.
In converting weight or mass to capacity, it depends on what consistency it is at.
Grams is a unit measurement of mass, and liters are a unit measurement of volume. You cannot mix the two units, since it depends on the substance (water, liquid Mercury, etc.). Each substance has a certain density. The density of a substance changes with temperature and pressure.
The standard temperature 20oC and the standard pressure of 1013.25 hPa is used when comparing substances, except for water, because water reacts otherwise than other substances.
Ex.:
Mercury has a weight of 13600 g at 20oC 1 1013.25 hPa
Water has weight of 997 g at 20oC 1013.25 hPa
So one litre of pure water is defined as one kilogram at 3.8oC 1013.25 hPa.

The weight of a liter depends on what substance is being measured. For water, 1 liter is equivalent to 1000 grams.
The conversion from liters to grams depends on the substance being measured, as the density varies across different substances. To determine the number of grams in 1 liter, you will need to know the density of the specific substance in grams per liter. Once you have the density, you can multiply it by 1 liter to find the equivalent weight in grams.
The mass of 1 liter of water is approximately 1 kilogram or 1000 grams.
The density of a substance will determine the mass of 1 liter. Water has a density of 1 g/ml, so 1 liter of water weighs 1000 grams. Other substances will have different densities and therefore different masses for 1 liter.
The weight in grams of a liter of a substance will vary depending on the density of the substance. To convert between volume (liters) and weight (grams), you need to know the density of the substance in question. The formula to calculate this is: mass (in grams) = volume (in liters) x density (in grams per liter).
1 liter of water has a mass of 1000 grams. This is because the density of water is 1 gram per milliliter.
