Air at sea level weighs about 1.2 kg per cubic meter. You can find that using the ideal gas law pV=mRT where p is pressure V is volume m is mass of gas R is the gas constant for air = universal gas constant/average molecular mass of air T is the temperature in absolute units. All of those are better in metric units, so p is in pascals, V is in cubic meters, m is in kilograms, T is in kelvins, and R is 8314/28.8 = 288 N-m/kg-K. At sea level, standard pressure is 101325 Pa, temperature is about 20 deg C or 293 K. For a volume of 1 cubic meter, m/V = p/RT = 101325 / (288 * 293) = 1.201 kilograms per cubic meter. Since you wanted to know gallons, 264.2 gallons is 1 cubic meter, and 2.204 lb in one kg, so 1.201 kg/m^3 * (1 m^3/264.2 gal) * (2.204 lb/kg) = 0.0100 lb/gal. Not a heckuva lot, but not zero. One thing to notice is that if you put a gallon of air on a scale, (in a wieghtless container, of course) you would measure zero, exactly. That's because the buoyancy caused by the surrounding air exactly counteracts the weight of the air in the container. If you pressurized the air in your gallon container to, say ten times the outside pressure (or 147.0 psi absolute, or 132.3 psi gauge) it would now weigh nine times 0.01, or 0.09 lb. Of course, the container that held all that pressure would have to weigh a lot more than 0.09 lb, so measuring the change would require a very good scale.
water
If liquid chlorine is 12% by volume and di clor is 56% by weight how many oz. will it take to make 12% by valume
== Probably close to the weight of water. 8.34 lbs per gallon.
phosphorus' atomic mass,it's weight,is 30.974 the atomic number on the other hand is 15
The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/cm3, or 0.789 kg per liter.There are 3.7854 liters per gallon, so 1 gallon of ethanol weighs 2.987 kg.There are 2.2046 lbs per kilogram, so 1 gallon of ethanol weighs 6.584 lbs.Compare that with the weight of 1 gallon of water: 8.3454 lbs
10.2 pounds
It is roughly the same as the weight of a gallon of water, because the bouyancy force is equal to the weight of water displaced (the weight of the air being negligible). A UK gallon of water weighs almost exactly 10 pounds, while a US gallon weighs about 8.35 pounds.
not just one gallon
One Imperial gallon weighs 34.0 newtons.
The weight of 1 gallon of gasoline equals 5.8 to 6.5 lbs.
"It should weight 8lbs, because you have 128 oz to one gallon and it takes 16 oz to make one pound. Not sure what the gallon itself weighs." NO! Liquid ounces do not equal weight ounces! I gallon of coconut oil is approximately 9 pounds.
one gallon of eggs weighs 108.8 ounces
One gallon of pure water weighs 8.345 pounds.
A gallon of water weighs 8 pounds.
8.35 lb , the weight of one gallon of water , more than previously .
The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid (Archimedes Principle). A gallon jug underwater will have a buoyant force equal to the weight of the displaced water: eight pounds. The total weight will also include the normal downward weight of the jug itself and the air it contains.
Good question but I can tell you that the weight of the oil has no bearing on the weight of the gallon. Look for a conversion chart and see what a gallon weighs of any liquid. Can be found in the front of your phone book or in a book at your local library or in a diet book. It is sold in 120lb. packages and there are 16 gallons per package. Therefore one gallon weighs 7.5 lbs. I believe 30-weight oil is 6.8 lbs/gal. One gallon of feathers does not weight the same as one gallon of water.......
The weight of a gallon of water is about 8.34 pounds at 17 degrees Celsius. At different temperatures, the weight will be different. This is in Imperial measurements, where an Imperial gallon is equal to 4.54609 liters.
