Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Per Wikipedia (I'll assume it's reliable for this purpose), acetone
weighs 0.79g/cm^3.
Per this site, there are 3785 cm^3 per gallon.
Also per this site, there are 453.6 g / lb.
.79g/cm^3 x 3785 cm^3/gal = 2990.15 g/gal
2990.5 g/gal x 1 lb / 453.6 g = 6.5928 lb/gal
2025 lbs. x 1 gal/6.5928 lbs. = 307.152 gal
2025 pounds of acetone is 307.15 gallons
weighs 0.79g/cm^3.
