Let's do this.
we know that 1 Gallon = 3785 ml
we know that 1 ml of water = 1g (metric system is awesome)
so 1 gallon of water = 3785 grams
1 lb = 453 grams
1 gallon of water = ( 3785 / 453 ) lbs
about 8.35 lbs / gallon
* 55
459.25
Gas is 6.3 lbs. per gallon. 55 gallons of gas will weigh 346.5 lbs. A steel drum will weigh 40 lbs. and a plastic 55 gallon drum will weigh 20 lbs.
An empty 45 gallon steel drum typically weighs around 30-35 pounds.
A 55 gallon drum of sand typically weighs around 360-400 pounds, depending on the density of the sand.
About 335 pounds.
A 55 gallon drum will hold approximately 390 lbs. of corn. If the drum has a funnel installed, may hold as much as 430 lbs.
A gallon of water weighs approximately 8.34 pounds.
834
An empty 50-gallon metal drum typically weighs around 30-40 pounds, depending on the thickness of the metal used in its construction.
A 55-gallon drum of 30-weight oil can weigh approximately 400-450 pounds, depending on the specific gravity and density of the oil.
A gallon of water weighs about 8.34 pounds. So, a 50 gallon water heater full of water would weigh approximately 417 pounds.
about the same as a gallon of water: 8+ lbs
== Probably close to the weight of water. 8.34 lbs per gallon.
