Could there be complete files in unallocated space?
Yes - when you delete a file from Windows or any other system, it just informs the computer to mark that specific area where the file as free/unallocated space in the file table (a list of file names and where they are located in the disk to help your computer keep track of them) of your disk. Likewise with formatting a disk, it just wipes the volume with a completely new file table.
This means that the data still remains on disk even though the computer no longer identifies that space as data.
Because of this, this is generally why people say if you want to recover something after a accidental deletion, do not do anything that writes data to the disk as you may accidentally overwrite the areas that contain the data that was to be recovered.

ATA/ATAPI-2 - the second revision of the ATA standard released in 1996
This is the second ATA/ATAPI standard. Released in 1996.
This standard extends the AT Attachment Interface with the addition of new commands, and defines improved interface transfer rates. In addition, general improvements have been made in content for completeness and to improve clarity.
This standard defines the AT Attachment Interface and integrated interfaces between devices and host processors. It provides a common point of attachment for systems manufacturers, system integrators, and suppliers of intelligent devices.
The application environment for the AT Attachment Interface is any device which uses internal storage.
The PC AT Bus(TM) is a widely used and implemented interface for which a variety of devices have been manufactured. As a means of reducing size and cost, a class of products has emerged which embed the controller functionality in the device. Because of their compatibility with existing AT hardware and software this interface quickly became a de facto industry standard. While the AT Attachment Interface has its roots in the PC AT Bus(TM), its use has extended to many other systems.
How many gallons do you weigh if you are 110 pounds?
Gallons are a measure of volume, not weight. You can still get an answer if you know the density of the average human. Humans are only slightly denser than water. So let's assume a density of 1.01g/cm^3.
110 pounds is 49.895 kg, or 49,895 grams.
We divide this by 1.01 to get the number in cm^3, which gives us 49400.990 cm^3.
One gallon is 3785.412 cm^3.
To get gallons, we divide 49400.990/3785.412.
This gives us an answer of 13.050.
A 110 pound person would displace a little over 13 gallons of water.
