Part 1
When completely​ empty, a
1.5
gallon​ [gal] tank weighs 118 newtons​ [N] on the Earth. Now on​ Mars, the tank is filled with oxygen
​(O2​)
with a molecular weight of 32 grams per mole​ [g/mol]. Inside the oxygen​ tank, the pressure is 5800 kilopascals​ [kPa], and the temperature is
−196
​(negative 196) degrees Celsius
​[°​C].
What is the total weight of the tank now that it is full of oxygen in Mars gravity in units of​ pound-force
​[lbf​].
The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.71 meters per second squared
​[m/s2​].
