However, this figure is quite approximate as gasoline expands with temperature. A gallon of gasoline weighs around 6 pounds (US) but can approach 5 pounds in extreme heat. (Buying gasoline in the summer in Phoenix or Houston gives you less energy per dollar than you are paying for.)

1 metric ton = 1000 kg

Water weight = 1 kg / liter

So 1000 liters of water weights 1000 kg.

Convert liters to gallons:

1000 liters / 3.785 liters/gal

So 264 gallons of water weighs 1 metric ton.

Ethane is a gas and as such its volume depends on its container. Even if ethane were not a gas all substances' volumes are affected by their temperatures. Therefore a metric ton of ethane can fill any volume of space given appropriate temperatures and pressures.

At 1.013 bar and 15 °C (59 °F) the density of propane [gas] is: 1.91 kg/m3.

1 m3 ≈ 219.969 imperial gallons ≈ 264.172 US gallons

1 tonne of propane [gas] at 1.013 bar and 15 °C takes up a volume of:

volume = 1000 kg ÷ 1.91 kg/m3

≈ 523.56 m3.

To Imperial gallons:

523.56 m3 ≈ 523.56 x 219.969 imperial gallons

≈ 115167 imperial gallons

To US gallons:

523.56 m3 ≈ 523.56 x 264.172 US gallons

≈ 138310 US gallons

Liquid propane at 1.013 bar and 15 °C is 311 times more dense:

1 tonne of [liquid] propane at 1.013 bar and 15 °C takes up a volume of:

  • 115167 imperial gallons ÷311 ≈370.31 imperial gallons
  • 138310 US gallons ÷311 ≈ 444.73 US gallons

There are approximately 118.76 gallons in one metric ton of propane. This may vary slightly depending on the temperature and pressure at which the propane is stored.

At 20oC ethanol has a density of 0.78945kg/l.

A tonne is 1 000kg.

So if we divide the mass by the density we get the volume.

1 000/ 0.78945= 1 266.7 litres.
