The weight is usually a referance to the volume of liquid propane the tank is designed to hold, not the weight of the tank.
seen as it's a 100 lb bottle of propane, funnily enough when it's full in contains 100 lbs of propane...
One gallon of propane weighs 5 pounds. The tank would hold 60 gallons.

Type your answer here... there are around 91,600 BTUs in a gallon of propane. The standard BBQ sized bottle of propane contains 11 pounds of propane. Propane weighs about 4.2 pounds per gallon, so that 11 pounds of propane is about 2.5 gallons in its liquid state. That means there is 91,600 BTUs/Gal times 2.5 gallons so a BBQ sized tank of propane contains about 2.3 million BTUs. If your BBQ has a 50,000 BTU burner, on high heat, it will last a bit over 4 and half hours of run time.
the tank itself, empty or full? or just 100 gallons of propane. poorly worded question. In As many words, You could have said 70 lbs. empty, 170lbs. Full, Poorly worded previous awnser. Liquid is 8+ lbs. Per gallon do the Math.

100 pound propane tank will hold 23.58 gallon. 100 pounds / 4.24 pounds per gallon = 23.58 gallons
20 LBS OF PROPANE WILL PRODUCE APPROX. 36,000 BTU @ 0 DEGRESS, 51,000 @ 20 DEGREES.

1 pound of propane is a little less than 1/4 of a gallon.
A 100 pound propane tank has a capacity of 2,160,509 BTUs
8 gallons are in a 33 1/2 lb tank. Now is that the space in a 33 pound can or is that the amount of fuel in a 33 pound can? These cans can only be filled by law to 80% to allow for expansion If that is the case, 80% of 8 gallons is 6.4 Gallons. Now how many gallons are in a 33 pound can of propane?
