A 100 pound propane tank can produce around 2,160,000 BTUs (British Thermal Units) of heat energy. This can vary slightly based on the quality of the propane and efficiency of the appliance using it.
A 10-kilowatt heater produces 34,120 BTUs per hour.
20 percent of 100 pounds is 20 pounds. Therefore, if there is 20 percent left in a 100-pound propane tank, there are 20 pounds of propane remaining in the tank.
There are approximately 0.236 gallons of propane in one pound of propane.
A 420 pound propane tank typically holds around 100 gallons or 380 liters of propane.
A 20-pound propane tank typically contains about 4.7 gallons of propane, which is equivalent to about 90,630 BTUs. This is enough energy to create a significant explosion if the tank were to rupture and ignite, potentially causing damage in the surrounding area.
