How much does 15000 gallons of water weigh?

Answer 1

That depends entirely on the substance that is in the gallons.

-- If the 150 gallons are full of water, then they weight about 1,253 pounds.

-- If they're full of gold, then they weigh about 23,812 pounds.

-- If the 150 gallons of space are empty, then they have no weight at all.

Answer 2

This would be 1200 pounds more or less. Pounds is a unit of mass/weight. Gallons is a liquid measure. They do not convert cleanly. The density of the liquid being measured can make a big difference. If the liquid is water, there is 8 pounds to a gallon.

Answer 3

That depends on what the tank is made of, and what it is filled with.

If it were made from Aluminum it would be very light, say 10 pounds; if Glass it would weigh around 350 pounds;, however if it were made from solid neutronium it would weigh a few hundred bazillion mega-tons.

If it was filled with air, it would be weigh no more than its own weight; with water it would add around 1,250 pounds; with Mercury it would weigh about 16,950 pounds.

So if it were say a 150 gallon fish tank, full of water and assorted fish & things, it would ring in around 1,800 pounds total.

Answer 4

If it's water, one gallon weighs about 8 pounds, so 150 gallons will weigh about 1200 pounds. 150 gallons of lead would weigh a lot more.
