If brass has a specific gravity of 8.5. A 5-gallon bucket of water weighs 40 pounds. How much would a 5-gallon bucket of brass weigh?

To find the weight of a 5-gallon bucket of brass, first convert 5 gallons of water to its weight. Since water has a specific gravity of 1, 5 gallons of water weighs 40 pounds. Brass, with a specific gravity of 8.5, is 8.5 times denser than water. Therefore, a 5-gallon bucket of brass would weigh 40 pounds × 8.5 = 340 pounds.


If you put a five pound fish in a gallon of water does the water now weigh fifteen pounds?

A gallon of water weighs about 8.34 pounds. If you have a good sized bucket with a gallon of water in it and you put a 5-pound fish in the bucket, you'll have a bucket that weighs about 13.34 pounds (plus the weight of the bucket). That's as long as the bucket doesn't overflow. The fish will (usually) be neutrally bouyant in the water, and it will be essentially weightless in that water. But its weight will add to that of the water in the bucket. No, it won't weigh 15 pounds, but it will weigh in as suggested. However, the weight of the water itself will not change.
