Answer 2

It depends how much sugar you've added, although unless it is super sugary it will be pretty close to pure water. Pure water weighs 1 kilogram per liter. (1 gallon = 3.7854 liters) So 1 gallon of water weighs 3.7854 kilograms (1 kilogram = 2.2046 pounds) So 1 gallon of water weights 8.345 pounds.

Answer 3

A gallon of sugar weighs 4.175 (approximate) pounds. When combined with a gallon of water (which weighs 8.35 pounds) it will make a total of 1.5 gallon. So in granulated form, sugar weighs half as much as water.

Answer 4

It's hard to give a direct answer to this due to variability of weight dependant on ambient conditions. However assuming it is in a solid state, one gallon of sucrose would weigh approximately 7.215 kilograms. I calculated this by taking the weight of 1cm^3 of sucrose which is around 1.587g/cm^3, then times that by 1000 to give the weight of one litre, then times that by around 4.546 to give the weight of one gallon (there being 1000cm^3 in a litre, and 4.546 litres in a gallon).

Answer 5

Honestly, you would have to know how wet it is. If you put a drop of water on a gallon of sugar, it's wet. If you put a gallon of water on a gallon of sugar, it's still wet...really just depends on how wet it is.

Answer 6

72% sucrose weighs 11.21 lbs

Answer 7

4.5kg
