To calculate the weight of 5 gallons of water, we need to know the density of water and then use the formula:

Weight=Volume×Density=Volume×Density

  1. Density of Water:

    • The density of water is approximately 8.34 pounds per gallon (lb/gal) or 1 kilogram per liter (kg/L).
  2. Volume:

    • 1 gallon is approximately 3.78541 liters.
    • 5 gallons would be 5×3.78541=18.92705×3.78541=18.92705 liters.

Now, let's calculate the weight:

  1. In pounds (lb): Weight=5 gallons×8.34 lb/gal=41.7 pounds (lb)=5gallons×8.34lb/gal=41.7pounds (lb)

  2. In kilograms (kg): Weight=18.92705 liters×1 kg/L=18.92705 kilograms (kg)=18.92705liters×1kg/L=18.92705kilograms (kg)

So, 5 gallons of water weighs approximately 41.7 pounds (lb) and 18.92705 kilograms (kg).
