That depends on the type material you are referring to. Also, these are two different types of measurements. Gallons is a measure of volume but the other is weight or mass. Please edit your question to include more context or details.
One gallon of paint weighs approximately 8.33 pounds. Therefore 55 gallons would weigh 458.15 pounds. Factoring in a weight of 25 pounds for the drum, the total would be about 483.15 pounds.
I just created a measure stick for my rain barrel made from a 55 gallon food drum measuring 35.5 inches high. My gal per inch calc is 1.56, so 1 inch equals 1.56 gallons for my barrel. I put interval markings at every 10 gallons so my measurements were as follows: 10 gallons = 6.5" 20 gallons = 12.8" 30 gallons = 19.2" 40 gallons = 25.6" 50 gallons = 32" 55 gallons = 35.5" These are obviousely approximate and estimated for a perfectly tubular barrel, but they are close enough for my purposes.
It depends on what fluid you have. If it's water, it's about 435.9 gallons, depending on temperature. If you have that weight of gasoline, it's be more gallons, because gasoline is relatively light. If it's carbon tetrachloride (a solvent used for cleaning), it'd be fewer gallons. A 55-gallon drum of water weighs 458 pounds plus tare. Fill that same drum with gasoline and it's 336 pounds. Carbon tet and it's 733 pounds, more than twice as much as gasoline. And if it was mercury, it'd be REALLY heavy. Don't drop that drum on your toes!
The drum has a capacity of 55 gallons. We have no way of knowing how many gallons are actually in it at any particular time. For all we know, it may be empty, and you may be just trying to trick us.
A standard barrel (Drum) is 55 gallons, therefore if the barrel is full of water it would weigh 440 pounds. An oil barrel is smaller and holds only 40 gallons and weigh apx 280 lbs as petroleum is lighter than water
55 quarts = 13,75 gallons (USA)
458 pounds your welcome
There's no direct conversion. It all depends on what's in the 55 gallons. If it's 55 gallons of air, then it's very few pounds. If it's 55 gallons of water, then it's around 460 pounds. If it's 55 gallons of stones or lead, then it's a lot more pounds than that. If it's 55 empty gallons, then it's no pounds at all.
There are 128 ounces in a gallon, or 8 pounds. 8 pounds * 55 gallons _________ 440 pounds
.25 kilograms .55 pounds
A gallon of honey roughly weighs 12lbs so assuming there is 55 gallons- 660lbs
55 US gallons is about 208.2 liters.
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
One gallon of paint weighs approximately 8.33 pounds. Therefore 55 gallons would weigh 458.15 pounds. Factoring in a weight of 25 pounds for the drum, the total would be about 483.15 pounds.
55 liters divided by 3.79 liters per gallon equals: 55/3.79 = 14.5 gallons (approx.).
You would divide by 8 to get an estimate 55 3/4 gallons. Pounds is a unit of mass/weight. Gallons is a liquid measure. They do not convert cleanly. The density of the liquid being measured can make a big difference. If the liquid is water, there is 8 pounds to a gallon.
In kilograms? 55 lbs is equal to 25 kg if that helps. One kg equals 2.2 lbs.
