This is not strictly true. If you follow this logic, then a quart is 2
pounds and since 1kg = 2.2 pounds, a liter is 1.1 quarts and it is not.
OK apart from the fact that a gallon weighs about 10 pounds and not 8,
therefore 1 quart is equal to approximately 2.5 pounds. Sorry to put
the cat amongst the pigeons
P.S. By the way that's UK gallons, quarts and pounds
