The weight of one gallon of gasoline is a result of its density and volume. Density, measured in pounds per gallon, represents the substance’s mass per unit volume. Volume, measured in gallons, reflects the amount of space occupied by the fuel. Temperature also affects density, with gasoline becoming less dense as temperature increases. Unit conversion factors, such as pounds per kilogram and gallons per liter, facilitate comparisons across different measurement systems. Understanding these concepts and adhering to fuel industry standards are essential for accurate fuel analysis and ensuring consistent and reliable results.
