DAT destroyer General Chem question number 84?

[dallaspage]

Can you explain Q84 on the DAT destroyer?
The solution said that One liter=1000g H2O.
I don't know this equation.
I think that It has to be One Kg=1000g H2O
Is it right?
If you know it, please explain it to me..

I just remember this:

600mL=.6L=.6kg

If 1kg=1000g, then 1L=1000g

And this is just applicable to water because water's density is 1.

I just memorize this and this helps me with conversions: 600mL=.6L=.6kg

It's true, If you were to weigh water, 1mL= 1g.
