Well, isn't that an interesting question! A gallon of gasoline has about 33.4 kilowatt-hours of energy, which is roughly equivalent to 1.3 kilograms of TNT. It's important to remember that this is just a way to compare the energy content of different materials, not their explosive power.

BeauThe energy content of gasoline is typically measured in British thermal units (BTUs), while the energy content of TNT is measured in kilojoules (kJ). To convert between the two, we can use the conversion factor that 1 kiloton of TNT is equivalent to approximately 4.184 x 10^12 joules. With further calculations, 1 gallon of gasoline is roughly equivalent to 0.015 kilotons of TNT.
