"A PINT'S A POUND THE WHOLE WORLD 'ROUND"
CAVEAT -- THIS ANSWER IS NOT EXACT, BUT IT IS AN EASIER WAY TO DETERMINE THE APPROXIMATE WEIGHT OF A GALLON, OR DIFFERENT AMOUNTS, OF WATER AND SIMILAR LIQUIDS SUCH AS VINEGAR, MILK, BROTH, COOKING OIL ET CETERA.
There is an old cooking phrase which addresses the weight of water and other similar liquids (and in some cases, solids) used in the preparation of foods:
"A pint's a pound the whole world 'round".
Actually, a pint of water weighs 1.04375 pounds. So, although this phrase does not provide the EXACT weight of each liquid, it does provide a very simple rule for determing approximately how much liquids weigh. In the case of water, there are eight (8) pints of water in a gallon. Using this rule, a gallon (eight pints) would weigh approximately eight (8) pounds, which is very, very close to a gallon of water's exact weight of 8.35 pounds which is found in the more detailed and scientifically correct answers to this question. Although pints of milk, gravies and sauces are more dense and actually weigh more than a pint of water, the cook can generally use his/her own judgement as to how much other liquids actually weigh. If you have an accurate weight scale, you can quite easily verify these figures.
So, if you're not building a rocket ship, making chemical compounds or medicines or any other things which would require EXACT measurements, remember the simply ditty:
"A pint's a pound the whole world 'round."
Elthron (who, incidently, weighs about the same as 30 gallons, or 240 pints, of water)

1 gallon of fresh water is about 8.36
According to the 21st edition of The Machinery's Handbook, 1 gallon of watter weighs 8.337 pounds.
To answer this question more appropriately you would have to know the temperature of the water. As water cools it becomes more dense until it reaches 39.2 degrees fahrenheit. Below this temperature the density decreases and the water molecules spread apart. 1 liter of water/ice at will actually weigh less than 1 liter of water at say 80 degress fahrenheit.
One cubic foot of water contains 7.48 gallons of water, weighing in at 62.31 pounds.
The Handbook of Chemistry and Physics specifies the weight of 1 US gallon of water in air at 68 degrees F to be 8.32487 pounds or 3776.103 grams.

1,000 liters is 264.17 US gallons.
For theoretical exercises use pure water standard of 1,000kg per 1,000 liters or 1 cubic meter. For practical and precise calc it must be considered other matters like temperature and water characteristics. Use the link below for calculations.
The weight of 187 gallons of water is about 1,560.5 pounds.
Same as converting to Liters. The metric system of weight is based on water and air so that 1000 L of water weighs 1000 kg.Therefore3 785.41178 KG
How much would 1000 penny weigh?
You can't, unless you know what the material is. 1000 gallons of gasoline will weigh less than 1000 gallons of water, which will weigh less than 1000 gallons of mercury. Unless you know the density of the stuff, you can't figure out how much a given volume of it will weigh.
1 US gallon = 3.78541178 liters.Only if you mean pure water, then 1000 litres of water weigh 1 metric tonne.1000 litres of water are 264.172052357 US gallons that weigh 1 metric tonne.
1 US gallon = 3.78541178 liters. Only (!) if you mean pure water, then 1000 litres of water weigh 1 metric tonne. 1000 litres of water are 264.172052357 US gallons that weigh 1 metric tonne. Don't use this conversion for gasoline.
1000 lbs of water weighs 1000 lbs.
if 1000 gallons cost 3.04 then 1000 ÷ 1000 gallons cost 3.04 ÷ 1000 → 1 gallon costs 0.00304 units.
The cubic meter of water will weigh one metric ton, or 1000 (one thousand) kilograms. It will contain about 264 (two hundred sixty four) gallons of water.
may be 1000 trillion gallons of water in a tsunamis wave
it can hold anywhere from 750-1000 gallons of water
This pipe will hold 23,500.7 gallons of water.
1 US gallon = 3.78541178 liters. Only if you mean pure water, then 1000 litres of water weighs 1 metric tonne. 1000 litres of water are 264.172052357 gallons that weigh 1 metric tonne.
1 US gallon is 3.8 litres. The density of petroleum relative to water is about 0.85 (it varies according to the quality). Therefore a gallon will weigh 3.8 x 0.85 = 3.23 kg. A metric tonne is 1000 kg, so volume will be 1000/3.23 = 309.6 gallons (call it 310 gallons)
The average price of water is $1.50/1000 gallons. (http://www.drinktap.org/kidsdnn/Portals/5/story_of_water/html/costs.htm) (2270/1000) * $1.50 = $3.41 for 2270 gallons
