About 8.35 pounds for one US gallon of water.
No, you would not gain 8 pounds from drinking a gallon of water. One gallon of water weighs roughly 8.34 pounds, but your body metabolizes and eliminates the water through urine and sweat. The temporary weight gain from drinking a gallon of water is due to the water itself and not actual fat or mass gain.
There are 768 teaspoons of water in one gallon.
There are 128 ounces in one gallon of water. So, 16 eight-ounce glasses of water equal one gallon of water.
There are 128 fluid ounces of any liquid in one gallon.
A gallon of water weighs approximately 8.34 pounds (3.78 kilograms) at room temperature.
One gallon of water weighs more than one gallon of gasoline. Water has a higher density than gasoline, meaning it is heavier for the same volume.
ANSWEROne cubic foot of fresh water: rule-of-thumb is 7.5 gallons (US) per cubic foot with each gallon weighing 8.33 pounds, so 1 cubic foot weighs about 62.4 pounds. one cubic inch weighs (62.4 / 12 /12 /12=) 0.036 pounds or about 1/2 ounce. Salt water is 2.5 % heavier than fresh water. Heavy water in nuclear reactors is a bit over 10 % heavier than fresh.
One gallon of fresh water weighs 8.36 pounds (8 pounds 5.76 ounces)
Given an identical volume of both to begin with (say, one gallon hot water, and one gallon cold water) they will be identical in weight. However, cold water is more dense than hot water.
All the oils that I am aware of have densities lower than the density of water. Hence, a gallon of water will weigh more than a gallon of oil. Oil is less dense than water. Oil of any kind actually floats on water because oil it's chemical makeup. That means that an equal volume of it will weigh less than water. We look at the word "gallon" and think that a gallon of anything is still a gallon. But the question was about weight, not volume! If you took a gallon of water and sat it beside a gallon container of lead, it's obvious the lead would weight more, but both are still a gallon in size. Here are some densities of oils in kg/m3 (water has a density of 1000): Castor oil: 956 Cotton seed oil: 926 California crude oil: 915 Linseed oil: 929 Soybean oil: 926 Whale oil: 925 On a Sidenote: This was the last question posed in the first ever finals of the ABC Television show named Duel with host Mike Greenberg, The Car Salesman lost the chance at 1.8 Million Dollars on his incorrect answer. The weight of a gallon of water is useful to know for fish tank hobbyists. Plain water is usually approximately 8 pounds per gallon.
52 fluid ounces of fresh water weighs about 3.4 pounds. One US gallon of plain water weighs about 8.345 pounds.
A "drum" is not a recognised measure for liquids.
Steel is heavier than concrete for the same volume, however steel buildings are generally lighter. This is because steel buildings utilize high strength of steel, so volume of steel in steel buildings is much smaller than volume of concrete in concrete buildings. In another words in steel buildings much less volume of material is needed for the same strength compared to concrete buildings.
Yes, just make sure they have enough fresh water to breathe. The rule is one inch of fish per gallon.
If there was a gallon of water before it was frozen then it weighs the same. Fresh water has a density of 1Kg/liter Water ice has a density of 0.9167Kg/l A gallon is a volume measurement, so a gallon of ice weighs less than a gallon of water. The short answer is about 380 grammes or 13.5 Oz.
They need a 5+ Gallon tank and you can only have one in the same tank.
