Or how much crude does it take to make 1 gallon of gasoline?

1 barrel makes about 19.5 gallons of gas.\n\nThe person below me:  Your math doesn't work because you can get a lot more than gas out of the crude oil, and the other products sell for non-zero values.

Yes to over $3 a gallon

The Volume of the Tank  = 2 * pi * radius * length\n                        = 2 * 3.14 * 1 * 5\n                        = 31.4 cu m\n\n1/2 of that             = 15.7 cu m\n1 cu m                  = 1000 lit\n15.7 cu m               = 15700 litre\n\nMass of 1 litre gasoline = 0.66 kg\n15700 litre              = 10362 kg

around 15 cents a gallon (memory). That was back when a dollar would go a long ways. Now  it is $3.00, so I guss the average would be about a dollar forty five.

I used to buy a product from Exxon called Varsol.  You can use gasoline also.

i live in palestine west-bank\n\nhere is the list of prices (we use metric units), all the prices are almost not exact\n\ngasoline, 1 liter = 1.25 dollar\ndiesel: 1 liter= 1 dollar\nrice: 1 kg= 0.9 dollar\nwheat flour: 1 kg= 0.25 dollar\n\nill put this on my watch list ;-)

That depends on whom you believe. If you believe the oil industry it takes 1.5 btus of oil to produce 1 btu of ethanol. If you believe the US Department of Agriculture it takes 1 btu of oil to produce 1.67 btus of ethanol on adverage. \n\nPersonally I believe the USDA. I have read both views, and both take into account fertilizer, fuel, etc. The problem with the one that originally said 1.5:1 was that it hasn't reflected changes in efficiency in farming in the last 30 years. That view keeps changing under the force of criticism, and it really looks like they are trying to prove a perconcieved notion rather than come to a conclusion.\n\nSo I believe that ethanol production is efficient.

That is virtually impossible to answer, as gasoline is a mixture of different hydrocarbons varying from 5 to 10 carbon atoms per molecule.

of course gas but if cant get that any flex fuel additive sold at auto stores. (or can order by gallon for you) with common ratio of 1 pint additive to 5-10 gals coco or other subsitute. theyll know which is best. also if use gas youd want 1 gal per10 gals of your substitute fuel.

The density will be the same no matter how much you have. It is less than 1 because it floats in water. A gallon of gas weighs 6 pounds. A gallon of water weighs 8 pounds. So  it is around 6/8 or .75 That was just an estimate.\n\nI just checked in a reference and it says .66g/ml

When you buy a quart of something it contains 32 oz.  And since there are 4 quarts in a gallon (tip: remember this as "quart"ers in a dollar) then there would be ... well, it should be easy for you now to figure out the number of ounces in a gallon.  \n\nBTW (By the way), I've noticed you've asked a few math homework questions.  If I may pass on some advice, the more you have others figure out the answers for you (vs. giving guidance like I did above) the harder it will be for you later on, and not just in future classes, but in life.  I guarantee it!  \n\nHTH and good luck!

If the tank is a cylinder, the Volume is πr²h.  If you get the volume in cubic feet, multiply by 7.5 to get gallons.

a gallon of gas was nine cents.  a burger and coke cost 5 cents each.  the average american made 400,000 a year.

Well you could multiply 16.5*12*14 and get the answer, but how will you get the second car to where the first car runs out of gas. Also most cars don't suck gas clear to the bottom of the tank.

Well, a gallon of diesel is about 7 pounds at sea level.\nIf 1 gallon = 3.8 liters and a pound is 4.5 kilos, you can figure the rest, right?\n\nOoops, that was dumb. A pound is 2.2 kg. Duh. \n\nJust got to thinking about something else and had to revisit this question. Good thing others are on the ball tonight!
