(US) one gallon:
0.133680528 cubic feet

A gallon of gasoline weighs about 6.3 pounds per US gallon, , depending on temperature, etc.
The approximate weight of gasoline, depending on several variables, is 740 grams/liter, 6.175 lb/US gal, and 7.416 lb/imperial gal
I think 6 lbs.
A gallon IS volume.

One US gallon of gasoline is approximately 6.3 pounds
Briefly, the saturated vapor volume of an average gallon of liquid gasoline when fully evaporated is 160.4 gallons of vapor at 60° F and sea level.Vapor volume of a liquid is the number of cubic feet of vapor resulting from the complete evaporation of the liquid. The vapor volume depends on parameters of density, temperature, pressure and molecular weight which is affected by the variety of formulas for gasoline that is comprised of a wide range of hydrocarbons.Several approaches are available to solve this problem. One is shown below.Using a common industrial formula:one liquid gallon = [(8.31) x (SG) x (387 cu ft)] / (MW)Where:8.31 = pounds in gallon of waterSG = specific gravity of liquid being vaporized387 = At standard conditions, one pound-molecular weight of a material will evaporate to fill 387 cubic feet of space.MW= molecular weight of liquid being vaporizedThen using the approximate gasoline constants:one liquid gallon of gasoline = [(8.31 pounds in a gallon of water) x (.70 approx. specific gravity of gasoline) x (387 cu ft)] / (105 molecular weight of average gasoline)= 21.4 cubic feet of vapor volumeThere is 7.481 U.S. gallons in one cubic foot.So:one liquid gallon of gasoline = (21.4 cubic feet) x (7.481)= 160.4 gallons of saturated gasoline vaporThe vapor volume will vary based on the specific formulation of gasoline, pressure, and temperature.D.

Equivalent in what way? Gasoline and water are two entirely different chemical compounds. They have dissimilar physical and chemical properties because, well, they are different. Perhaps you are referring specifically to the weight of a gallon of each. If so, then the weight of a gallon of each substance is not equivalent because the gas is less dense than water, so a gallon of water weighs more. When referring to volume, a gallon of gas is equivalent to a gallon of water. Even a gallon of oxygen is equivalent to a gallon of water, in reference to volume. However, when dealing with gases, pressure, temperature, and the number of molecules of the gas must be taken into account.
Regulations in the US and Europe limit the benzene content in gasoline to 1% by volume.
A gallon IS volume.
One US gallon equates to about 3.785 liters.
The volume of gasoline is exactly the same as how much of it you have, like 8 fluid ounces, 2 gallons, etc. The mass of gasoline also depends on how much of it you have, just like any other substance. One gallon of gas has about 2.84 kilograms of mass.

"Gallon" is a measure of volume; thus, a gallon of diesel (or any liquid for that matter) has a volume of one gallon, which is 231 cubic inches.
One US gallon of gasoline is approximately 6.3 pounds
It is not possible to answer the question without knowing the volume (quantity) of the gasoline. One gallon weighs from 5.8 to 6.5 pounds, depending on the temperature when you weigh it. Water holds similar weight properties as gasoline, so you may wish to test this by weighing one gallon of hot water and one gallon of cold water and taking the average. Don't measure, pour or heat gasoline!! Gasoline wegihs 6.08 pounds per gallon, diesel weighs an average of 7.1 pounds per gallon, water weighs 10.0 pounds per gallon. I Taransport gasoline daily and have been for the past 14 years.

It takes about 2.14 gallons of crude oil to produce one gallon of gasoline.
The average price of one gallon of gasoline in the US in the summer of 1970 was 36 cents.
