Strictly speaking no - the liter is a non-SI unit. However it is very widely accepted being equivalent to a dm3.
So the m3 is the official SI unit of volume and other derivations of it e.g. mm3 which is equivalent to the ml - or milliliter. The m3 is such a large unit that liters are very often used and totally accepted.

No, liter is a unit of volume, not mass. Mass is typically measured in units like grams or pounds.

What is the mass of 1 liter of water in newtons?
The mass of 1 liter of water is approximately 1 kilogram. To convert this to newtons, you would multiply the mass in kilograms by the acceleration due to gravity, which is about 9.81 m/s^2. So, the weight of 1 liter of water is approximately 9.81 newtons.
What are the base units of measure for mass length and volume within the metric system?
basic unit of length mass and volume in the metric system are as follows . basic unit of length in the metric system is meter . basic unit of mass in the metric system is kg . basic unit of volume in the metric system is L.
Is a which one do you use for capacity a gram or a liter?
A liter is typically used to measure liquid capacity, while a gram is used to measure mass. If you want to measure the volume of a liquid, you would use liters. If you want to measure the weight of an object, you would use grams.
How would density relate to liter?
Density is a measure of mass per unit volume, so it is often expressed in units such as grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per liter. In the metric system, 1 liter of a substance will have a different mass depending on its density. Low density substances will have less mass in 1 liter compared to high density substances.
What property is being measured when the unit of measurement is it length density mass volume?
The unit of length in SI is metre (m). The unit of mass in SI is kilogram (kg). The unit of volume in SI is litre (L). The derived unit of density in SI is Mg/m3 (or g/cm3). Length, mass, density, volume are not units but characteristics of materials and objects.
Is the standard unit of mass in the metric system is the liter?
No, a liter is the standard unit of volume in the metric system. If you're looking for the standard unit of mass, it would be the gram.

How heavy is a liter?
A liter is a unit of volume, not of weight or mass. You can convert a liter to mass units (kilograms) for a specific substance, if you know its density.
How many 1kg to liter?
That depends on the substance. There is no general conversion from kilogram to liter, since kilogram is a unit of mass, and liter is a unit of volume.
A liter is equal to how many KG?
Not comparable - a liter is a unit of volume, a kilogram is a unit of mass. For specific substances, if you know the density, mass = volume times density.
What 12 400milligrams to liter?
There can be no standard conversion. A milligram is a unit of mass. A liter is a unit of volume. For a specific substance, you can do the conversion if you know its density (mass = volume x density).
What is the mass of 1 liter of water in newtons?
The mass of 1 liter of water is approximately 1 kilogram. To convert this to newtons, you would multiply the mass in kilograms by the acceleration due to gravity, which is about 9.81 m/s^2. So, the weight of 1 liter of water is approximately 9.81 newtons.
How many kilograms are in second liter?
Kilogram is a unit of mass, second is a unit of time, litre is a unit of volume !
What is the mining of kilogram?
The kilogram is a unit of mass. It is approximately equal to the mass of one liter of water.
The si base unit of mass is the milliliter?
Actually, the SI base unit of mass is the kilogram, not the milliliter. The milliliter is a unit of volume, equal to one-thousandth of a liter.
What unit of measure would you use to weigh items Meter liter gram?
gram is the unit for mass, out of your choices.
