The density of diesel fuel oil (20 to 60) at 15 degress Celsius is 820 to 950 kg/m3. In other words, it has from 82 to 95 percent the density of water, or specific gravity (relative to water) of 0.82 to 0.95.
No, diesel fuel is not a mixture of gasoline. Diesel fuel is a specific type of fuel that is heavier and less volatile than gasoline, and is used primarily in diesel engines. Gasoline, on the other hand, is a lighter and more volatile fuel that is used in spark-ignition engines.
I do not know what "on rd" diesel is but do know diesel fuel (petroleum distillate)The density of petroleum diesel is about 0.85 kg/l (7.09 lb/US gal)"on rd" diesel is diesel fuel used on the highway (rd=road) which is taxed by the Federal Government at the pump, as opposed to "off rd" diesel which is used on farms for tractors and other farm implements and is tax exempt.
Diesel fuel can start to gel and potentially clog fuel filters and lines at temperatures below approximately 32°F (0°C). A specific temperature at which diesel fuel will gel can vary depending on the type and blend of diesel fuel. To prevent gelling, additives can be used to lower the gel point of diesel fuel.
Diesel weighs approx. 7.2 pounds 13423 x 7.2 =96,645.6#
Marine diesel fuels typicaly contain ~12% Hydrogen.
233 g/mole estimated average molecular weight. Diesel fuel, like other petroleum products, is not one specific chemical compound but a complex mixture of organic compounds separated into ranges by their boiling point. For this reason, diesel doesn't have a specific molecular weight. However, you can talk about an "average molecular weight" of the mixture. EPA lists an estimated average molecular weight for diesel of 233 g/mole. http://www.epa.gov/athens/learn2model/part-two/onsite/es.htm The actual average molecular weight of diesel will vary from sample to sample depending on what grade of diesel it is (i.e. #1 diesel is light diesel), feedstock of the diesel, and the refining process of the diesel.

If you are asking about diesel fuel, one gallon of diesel fuel weighs about 7 pounds.That's the American gallon, a British gallon of diesel would weigh about 8 pounds.

Yes, the weight of diesel fuel can be affected by temperature. As diesel is exposed to different temperatures, its volume can expand or contract, leading to a change in weight. Generally, diesel fuel will weigh less at higher temperatures and more at lower temperatures due to the difference in density.
A typical value of Diesel fuel density is 0,832 g/cm3.But must be mentioned that the density may be different for each refinery.
The weight of 1 US gallon of diesel fuel is approximately 7 pounds (3.15 kilograms).

5-7 lbs dependeing on temp
Diesel Engine SFC is Specific Fuel Consumption of Diesel Engine. This used to know how efficient Fuel utilization of Diesel Engine to produce electricity. Usually formula of SFC is Fuel Consumption divided by Electricity Production (liter/kWh).
