Diesel weighs about 7.1 pounds per gallon.
Though the question is appears to be about weight, it is actually about density, which is weight per unit volume.
The SI-Unit of density is the kilogram per cubic metre, and expressed in those units, the densities are these:
Water: 998 kg/m3
Gasoline: 720 kg/m3
Diesel: 830 kg/m3
You see this when gasoline and water are put into a glass: because they are immiscible and the density of gasoline is lower, it will stay at the top. (Be careful when doing this as gasoline vapor is explosive and toxic!)
In the bathyscaphe Trieste, a research submarine designed to go to the deepest point of the Pacific Ocean, the bathyscaphe was filled with gasoline, which was buoyant in the ocean water. It carried steel shot as ballast to make it sink, and the gasoline provided the "lift", similar to a balloon in the air.
Yes and no. If you have 1 kg of gasoline and 1 kg of water, they weigh the same since they are both 1 kg. Now if you have the same volume of water and gasoline their weights would be different since gasoline is less dense than water.
Since water is considerably more dense than gasoline, 1 liter of water would have greater mass. The approximate mass of 1 liter of water would be 1000 grams (the exact mass would depend on the temperature, pressure and any impurities in the water). The approximate mass of 1 liter of gasoline is about 737 grams. The exact value would again depend on the temperature, pressure, and especially on the composition since "gasoline" is only a broad term for a mixture of hydrocarbons that will work in most internal combustion engines.
Gasoline is 6.3 pounds per gallon while plain (tap) water is 8.35 pounds per gallon.

Burning 1 gallon of gasoline produces 1.52 gallons of water. How this is calculated:1 gallon of gasoline weights 8.66lbs, of which 1.4 lbs is Hydrogen, as gasoline contains 16% Hydrogen and 84% carbon by weight.This assumes gasoline has the chemical formula of C8H18, the same as Octane.Water is 11% Hydrogen and 89% Oxygen by weight. One gallon of water weights 8.35lbs, and contains .92 lbs of Hydrogen, and 7.43 lbs of oxygen.Therefore since hydrogen burned or in, equals hydrogen out after combustion, therefore 1.4 lbs of hydrogen burned, equals 1.4 lbs of hydrogen in the H20 or water created in combustion. By weight, 1.4 lbs of hydrogen divided by the weight of .92 lbs of hydrogen in water, equals 1.52. So 1.4 lbs of hydrogen in 1 gallon of gasoline, is converted to more gallons of water because gasoline contains more hydrogen per gallon, then does water.
Equivalent in what way? Gasoline and water are two entirely different chemical compounds. They have dissimilar physical and chemical properties because, well, they are different. Perhaps you are referring specifically to the weight of a gallon of each. If so, then the weight of a gallon of each substance is not equivalent because the gas is less dense than water, so a gallon of water weighs more. When referring to volume, a gallon of gas is equivalent to a gallon of water. Even a gallon of oxygen is equivalent to a gallon of water, in reference to volume. However, when dealing with gases, pressure, temperature, and the number of molecules of the gas must be taken into account.
gasoline weighs 6.1 lbs per gallon at standard pressures and temperatures....
One US gallon of gasoline is approximately 6.3 pounds
The mass of water is with 20-30 % higher.
objectsfloats on water, oil and kero depending on the objects density or the objects weight.
The specific weight of gasoline is 6.073 pounds per gallon. The density of gasoline varies due to the quality of the gasoline, but is generally between 0.71-0.77 kilograms per liter.
No. Gasoline is an oil product and does not mix with water.
Burning 1 gallon of gasoline produces 1.52 gallons of water.

Because water is not a flammable substance and gasoline is.
Hexane and gasoline both are insoluble in water.
Gasoliner is NOT heavier than water. If you mix the two compounds , then allow them to settle. You will see that gasoline is on top of the water. ; Hence it is lighter (less heavy). Scieintifically, the density of gasoline is less than the density of water.
One US gallon of gasoline weighs about six pounds.
Gasoline weighs about 6.2 lbs per gallon.
Premium burn hotter so will give better performance.
Yes, because water is heavier then gasoline
