Water weighs 8 pounds per gallon
8 pounds x 5 gallons = 40 pounds
Just remember the verse, "A pint's a pound the world around"
and weight of liquids won't be a problem.

The weight of water is equal to the density of water times the volume of water.
Weight = (Weight density)(Volume)
Density of water = 8.3 lb./gallon
So the weight of 5 gallons of water is:
Weight = (8.3 lb. / gallon) (5 gallons) = 41.5 pounds.
