Volume in US gallons (US gal):
Density in
Mass (weight) in pounds (lb):
0.00lb
Density of some materials:
- Air ≈ 0.01 lb/(US gal)
- Aluminum = 22.53 lb/(US gal)
- Concrete ≈ 20.03 lb/(US gal)
- Diesel ≈ 7.09 lb/(US gal),
- Gasoline (petrol) ≈ 5.93 lb/(US gal)
- Steel = 65.51 lb/(US gal)
- Water (4°C) = 8.345 lb/(US gal)
How to convert from US gal to lb?
The mass (weight) in pounds is equal to the volume in US gallons multiplied by the weight in pounds per US gallon.
Formula:
m = V x p
m – mass (weight) in pounds (lb);
V – volume in US gallons (US gal);
ρ – density in pounds per US gallon (lb/(US gal)).
Example
Convert 12 US gal to lb if the density is 8.345 lb/(US gal).
Solution: m = V x p = 12 x 8.345 = 100.14 lb. Answer: 100.14 US gal = 100.14 lb (density = 8.345 lb/(US gal)
