How many empty crushed pop cans will fit in a one gallon bag?
The number of empty crushed pop cans that will fit in a one-gallon bag can vary based on how tightly the cans are crushed and packed. On average, a standard aluminum can, when crushed, takes up about 40-50% of its original volume. Generally, you can expect to fit approximately 15 to 20 crushed cans in a one-gallon bag, depending on the compression and arrangement of the cans.
How does the density of a crushed metal can compare to the density of the metal can before it was crushed?
The crushed can will have a density that is quite a bit higher than the density of the can before it was crushed. Imagine a box of empty aluminum beverage cans. It won't weigh much. If those same cans are crushed, they will weigh the same, but take up a lot less space. The density of the cans can be increased by crushing them. The cans might be said to have a low bulk density before being crushed.

What weighs more a bag full of uncrushed cans or bag full of crushed cans?
If both bags are the same size, there would be more cans in the crushed can bag and it would weigh 3 or 4 times more than the bag without any crushed cans. If there are the same number of cans in each bag, as long as the cans were not closed, they would weight the same. If the cans were sealed, the air inside would add to the weight of the bag. as the uncrushed cans would leave a lot of air in the bag that would be lighter so a bag of crushed would weigh more as there would be more cans in there

How many 1-gallon cans will fit in a 55-gallon drum?
To determine how many 1-gallon cans will fit in a 55-gallon drum, you need to divide the total volume of the drum by the volume of each can. Since there are 128 fluid ounces in a gallon, a 1-gallon can is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces. Therefore, a 55-gallon drum is equal to 55 x 128 = 7040 fluid ounces. If we divide 7040 by 128, we find that approximately 55 1-gallon cans can fit in a 55-gallon drum.

How many pounds are in a garbage bag full of crushed pop cans?
As it would seem that the size of the bag will determine how many cans are within (crushed or other wise) and because each crushed can still retains a different shape (some crush more than others), there is no way to provide an exact answer about the weight of the bag. The single best way to find the answer is to use a bathroom scale. First weigh yourself alone on the scale. Then pick up the bag and weigh yourself again while holding the bag. Lastly, subtract the weight while holding the bag from the weight when not holding the bag. The difference will be the weight of the bag and it's contents.
