Calculation & Units
Calculations are base on my 240 gal.actural tank size
Tank Volume Fromular
Units & Formulations:
          1 gallon = 3.78 liters
          1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
          1 foot = 12 inches
          1 pound = 450 grams
          1 gallon = 8.35 bl
          1 ml = 1 mg
          1 liter = 2.2 lb
          1 gallon = 8.3 lb
          C* = (9/5) x (F* - 32)
          F* = (9/5) x C* + 32
          (V)olume = (L)ength x (W)ide x (H)eigh
Convert measurement :

a) 240 gallons how  many liters does the tank has?

          1 gallon -----------> 3.8 liters
          240 gallons -------> X liter
                    3.8 liters x 240 gallons
          X = ------------------------------ = 912 liters
                           1 gallon

b) How many gram of salt need to be add in 912 liters of water inoder for it to has of salt concentrations?

           100% Salt concentraion mean:  there are 100 Units of salt in 100 Volume of it dilute
           or there are 912 Kg of salt in 912 L of water.
           100% -----------> 912 Kg
           0.1% ------------> X
                       0.1% x 912 Kg
            X = ----------------------- = 0.912 Kg = 912 g
                            100 %

c) 240 gallons tank with full water how much does it wieght?

             1 galon ----------> 8.3 bl
             240 gallons ------> X
                       240 gallons x 8.3 bl
             X = --------------------------- = 1992 lb = 906 Kg
                                1 gallon
             With the stand and canopy and all acessories the tank must wieght over 3000 bls
              1.5 tons

d) 28 degree C how many degree in F?

              F* = (9/5) x C* + 32 = (9/5) x 28 + 32 = 82.4 F*

e) tank size 8"x2"x2" how many Gallons/Liters does the tank has?


              convert mesuarement units:
                          2ft x 12 inch x 2.54 cm x 0.1 dm
               W = ------------------------------------------ = 6.09 dm
                                   1ft x 1inch x 1 cm
               using same calculation we also have:
                H = 6.09 dm
                L = 6.09 x 4 = 24.36 dm
                V = H x W x L = 6.09 dm x 6.09 dm x 24.36 dm = 906.14 dm3 = 906.14 Liters
                1 gallon ----------> 3.8 L
                X ----------------> 906.14 L
                           1 gallon x 906.14 L
                 X = ---------------------------- = 239.7 gallons
                                     3.8 L
