how much does a gallon of gas weigh? nklr

[The Squasher]

One gallon of gas wieghs exactly half of 2 gallons of gas and twice 1/2 a gallon. Hope this helps straighten things out.

How about this: density = mass / volume in (g/mL) or (kg/L) so, mass (kg) = density (kg/L)* volume (L)1 gallon = 3.785 L so, the mass (weight) of 1 gal of gas = (0.72 or 0.75 kg/L) * 3.785 (L)= (2.725 or 2.839 kg) = 6.01 or 6.27 lbs depending on temperature _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com Share information about yourself, create your own public profile at http://profiles.msn.com
