By volume: 10 gallons of whole milk will yield 1 gallon of cream.

Milk weighs approximately 8.6 lbs./gal.
Cream weighs approximately 8.4 lbs./gal.
If you really want to know how much cream is in a POUND of milk, you'll need to do the calculations yourself.
The amount of cream in milk means the cream content in the milk AFTER the pasteurisation process. The amount of cream in the milk is usually lower the more it is pasturized so it is put on the bottle to ensure you that, yes, there is cream still in the milk.
It depends on the density of the milk which, in turn, will depend on the amount of cream that it contains. Or, if you get your milk from a dodgy supplier, the amount of water!
"Half and half" is half milk and half cream. All the cream is taken from the milk and then a 1:1 ratio of fatless milk and cream are mixed. half and half has more fat than whole milk, so they are not interchangeable.
Cream is separated from whole milk. The main ingredient of interest in cream would be the butterfat. The amount of butterfat would depend upon the type of cream.
No, it isn't. Condensed milk is created when water (approximately 60%) is removed from cow's milk, and it typically has sugar added to it. Condensed milk usually contains at least 8% milk fat and 28% milk solids. Cream, on the other hand, is created when the fatty part of milk is skimmed from the top of the milk before it is homogenized. There are different types of cream, including: half-and-half, light cream (or coffee cream), light whipping cream, and heavy cream (or heavy whipping cream). The exact amount of milk fat in any one of these creams varies by country. In general, half-and-half cream will contain 10.5-18% milk fat, light cream will contain 18-30% milk fat, light whipping cream will contain 30-36% milk fat, and heavy cream will contain at least 36% milk fat.
The density changes due to differences in the density between cream and milk. Cream is lighter than water and milk is heavier than water. The average density of whole milk could be close to 1.024g per liter. When the cream is removed, the density of the milk goes up to about 1.036g per liter, while the density of the cream is about 0.968g per liter.

Cream is the fatty parts of whole milk. You cannot churn milk to make cream but you can process whole natural milk to get the cream.
No. Milk has cream in it. When it is processed the cream is removed leaving the milk. About 40 years ago you could buy milk with the cream still on top.
You make a thickshake from either making it by 4 scoops of ice cream with 1 Cup of milk. Then you blend it. If you want it to be smoother use thickened cream instead of milk in the same amount.
Standardisation is when cream is removed from the milk and then added back to a specific butterfat. For instance - cream is first removed, leaving skim milk and cream. The cream is then added back into the milk phase to 2.0% to give low fat milk. The rest of the cream is used for cream or butter.
