The "kilogram" was defined as the mass (not weight, but similar) of one liter of water (i.e. one cubic decimeter of water) at standard temperature and pressure. There are 1 thousand cubic decimeters in a cubic meter (or 1 million cubic centimeters), so a a cubic meter of water would have a mass of 1 million grams, or 1,000 kilograms, or 1 metric ton.

This value will change when the water is not at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure.

This is why the kilogram definition is now related to a prototype made of iridium and platinium.

one cubic metre is a volume not a weight. one cubic metre of lead will weigh more than a cubic metre of polystyrene. however, one cubic metre of water is equal to 1000 litres which equals one tonne. Answer:

The density of Fuel Oil is 890.13 kg/m3 at 60° C.

14.3 grams Explanation: Taking the approximation of methane as an ideal gas we can use the equation: PV=nRT P=pressure = 1atm V= 1 ft^3 = 1 inch^3 *12^3 = 1,728 inches^3 = 1,728 *(2.54^3) cm^3 = 28,316 cm^3 = 28.3 L n=number of moles R= gas constant = 0.082057 L*atm/(mol*K) T = 60 F = 15.6 C = 288.8 K Solve for n gives n=1.19 moles Methane is CH4 and has a molar mass of 12+4 = 16 Therefore you have 14.3g of methane.

1 gallon = 0.1337 cubic foot

Notes:

-- That's 7.48 gallons in one cubic foot.

-- It doesn't matter what's in it, or even if it's empty.

-- There's no such thing as a "cubic square foot".

Methane is a gas, so unless you specify a pressure it can weigh just about anything. Molecular weight : 16.043 g/mol

Methane has a density of 1.1004 grams/cubic centimeter, which is equal to 1.1004 tonnes/cubic meter, or 1,100.4 kg/cubic meter.

At room temperature and standard pressure, methane is a colorless, odorless gas. The density depends on the pressure of the Methane gas.
