Answer me
Answer
Coconut oil is wonderful to bake with. It's the main oil I use. The best kind to use is virgin coconut oil (or extra virgin, which is the same thing as far as I can tell). I love the flavor it imparts, whether I'm using it for sweet or savory dishes. I recently bought a 5 gallon bucket of it! It's cheaper that way. If you want to learn more about its health benefits (yes--benefits!) check out the Weston Price Foundation (www.westonaprice.org). They have articles about it by scientists who attest to its goodness and talk in depth about its makeup. They suggest you take it as a supplement--2 to 3 Tablespoons a day. In a great part of Asia it is the principal oil used in cooking and baking.

gallon and metric ton?

1 gallon coconut oil how many kg and liter? 1 metric ton how many kg and liter?
Answer
kg is mass. How heavy coconut oil is per unit of volume depends on it's greatly varying density, depending on many factors such as temperature, purity and so on. Let's use the number provided by this website and assume the temperature is the same as the supplied one: http://www.simetric.co.uk/si_liquids.htm - that is 924.27 kg/m^3
We find the volume of one gallon:
1 US gallon = 0.00378541178 cubic meters. This is found by memory or looking it up in a chart.
Now we multiply the given number with the density supplied: 0.00378541178 m^3*924.27 kg/m^3 = 3.4987425459006 kg.
There are 1000 kg to a metric ton, so we're looking at a weight of approximately 3.5*10^-3 metric tons. That is 0.0035 metric tons. (I've rounded the number up)
Now, for the volume conversion to liters. One US gallon is 3.78541178 liters (1 liter is 0.001 cubic meters. Or one cubic decimeter if you will)
