How do you convert pound LPG to gallons?
To convert pounds of LPG to gallons, you need to know the specific gravity of the LPG. Once you have the specific gravity, divide the number of pounds by the specific gravity to get the equivalent volume in gallons.
How many pounds equals 1 gallon?
How many pounds of what? You are mixing measurements. Gallons measure volume while pounds measures weight. A gallon of water weights less than a gallon of mercury, but more than a gallon of oil.
How much does 40 gallon of water weights?
Water weighs about 8.34 pounds per gallon. So, 40 gallons of water would weigh approximately 334.4 pounds.
How many gallons is 50lbs of honey?
A gallon of honey weights about 12 pounds. 50 pounds of honey is about 4.2 gallons. Of course, the actual amount will depend on the type of honey, since density can vary.
10 gallons equal how many pounds?
The weight of 10 gallons will vary depending on what substance is being measured. For water, 10 gallons would weigh about 83.3 pounds. Other substances will have different weights per gallon.
Muriel collects rainwater in a large barrel that weighs 20 pounds. When thereare 10 gallons of water in the barrel, the total weight of the barrel and thewater is 103.4 pounds. When there are 20 gallons of water, the total weight is186.8 pounds?
The barrel itself weighs 20 pounds. 10 gallons of water, therefore, weights 103.4 minus the weight of the barrel itself. 103.4-20 = 83.4 20 is twice as much as ten, so 83.4 * 2 = 166.8 pounds. If we add the barrel back in, we have a total weight of 166.8 + 20 = 186.8

How much does a drum of motor oil weigh?
A barrel of oil contains 42 gallons. A gallon of light crude oil weighs approximately 7.27 pounds. Heavy crude oil weighs 7.61 pounds per gallon. Therefore a barrel of light crude oil weighs 305.34 pounds + the weight of the barrel. Heavy crude would weigh 319.62 pounds + the weight of the barrel.
What is therate for 20 pounds per 5 gallons?
20 pounds/5 gallons = 4 pounds/1 gallon or 4 pounds per gallon.
Size of barrel of oil?
The weight of a barrel of oil will depend on its density. A barrel contains 42 gallons and density is typically measured in units of API gravity. Units can be a bit confusing in this case. We need to convert from API density to pounds per gallon. Crude oil can typically vary from 15 to 45 deg API although I have worked with oils as low as 8 and as high as 50. Let us consider oil gravity of 30 deg API, as all other densities are calculated in the same way. Specific Gravity = 141.5/(131.5 + 30) = 0.876 The specific gravity is the density of the oil relative to water. Now, to convert this to pounds per gallon, we must multiply the answer by 8.34 (density of water is 8.33 pounds per gallon): 8.34 x 0.876 = 7.30 pounds/gallon. Since there are 42 gallons in a barrel, we must multiply this answer by 42: 42 x 7.30 = 307 pounds. To summarize, a) convert API to specific density b) convert specific density to pounds per gallon and c) multiply gallons in one barrel by the pounds per gallon.
What is the weight in pounds of 100 barrels of 19.2ppg fluid?
To find the total weight of the fluid, first calculate the weight of one barrel of fluid: 1 barrel of fluid weighs 19.2 pounds per gallon (ppg) 1 barrel contains 42 gallons (standard for oil barrels) So, 1 barrel weighs 19.2 x 42 = 806.4 pounds To find the total weight of 100 barrels, multiply the weight of one barrel (806.4 pounds) by 100: 806.4 pounds/barrel x 100 barrels = 80640 pounds Therefore, the weight of 100 barrels of 19.2ppg fluid is 80640 pounds.
