I have recently picked up a 5 gallon bucket of cement and I can assure you that it did not weigh 131 pounds. My guess is that the 26.71 calculation is for a 1 gallon solid piece of cement (e.g., a 1 gallon clinker). I'm also guessing that the question is referring to ground cement, which is a powder. Powdered cement is a particulate and therefore has a significant amount of air due to particle packing. Calculating the weight of a powder from volume is much more difficult than just using density. If you want to know what a gallon of cement weighs, the easiest way will be to use a scale.
Portland Cement has a specific gravity of 3.15. Water weighs 8.34 pounds per gallon, and so the problem set up to determine the weight of one gallon of Portland Cement is as follows:
8.34 x 3.15 = 26.271 pounds Other brands and/or types of cements have different specific gravities. Visit the following Web address to view a list of the specific gravities for certain substances:

Half of 2 and a half gallons is 1 and a quarter gallons.
Nothing because ounces is a weight measurement and gallons is a volume measurement so you can't compare the two. you could ask what is the weight of a gallon compared to two 2 ounces because they are both weight.
1 gallon is equivalent to 8 pints, so 2 gallons would be 16 pints. Therefore, 2 gallons would weigh 16 pounds.
Cement is typically sold by weight in metric tons or by volume in cubic meters. In some cases, it may also be sold in bags of a specified weight, such as 50 kg bags.
The weight of 45 gallons of crude oil is approximately 300-350 pounds, depending on the specific gravity of the oil.
A gallon of cement typically weighs around 12.5 pounds, so 5 gallons of cement would weigh around 62.5 pounds.
sand=2*Weight of Cement water=cement/2
That is 7.481 US gallons
Half of 2 and a half gallons is 1 and a quarter gallons.
unit weight of cement, Portland is 1506 kg/cu.m unit weight of cement, mortar is 2162 kg/cu.m cement, slurry is 1442 kg/cu.m

What is the weight of one cubic yard of cement? If you are asking the weight of 1 cubic yard of CONCRETE it is approximately 2 tons or 4000 pounds per cubic yard when wet.
The answer to this question will vary depending on the water/cement ratio specified. Typically, the water content is around 5% by weight.
it can hold up to 2 gallons
The weight of 1 cubic meter (m^3) of cement is typically around 1440 kg.
A sack of cement typically weighs around 94 pounds, although the exact weight can vary slightly depending on the type and brand of cement.
7500 gallons due to the weight not the available volume in the tank.
