Pounds is a measurement of weight, and gallons is a measurement of volume. Liquids do not all weigh the same, so 229 gallons of one liquid will weigh more than 229 gallons of a different liquid. So they might be the same for a particular liquid, but since you didn't specify a particular liquid, there's no way a person can tell you if it will weigh 2750 pounds or not.

No, 25 lbs does not equal 5 gallons. Pounds measure weight, while gallons measure volume. The conversion between the two units depends on the substance being measured, as different materials have different densities.

No, since there can be no conversion.

A gallon is a measure of volume. A pound is a measure of mass. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
