A gallon of water weighs approximately 8.35 pounds. How many pounds of water are in the pool? 

To determine the total weight of the water in the pool, we first need to know how many gallons of water the pool holds.

Assuming you know the pool's volume in gallons, the formula for calculating the total weight of the water is:

\[
\text{Total weight of water (pounds)} = \text{Volume of pool (gallons)} \times 8.35 \, \text{pounds per gallon}
\]

If you provide the pool's volume (in gallons), I can compute the total weight for you.

Do you have that information, or would you like help calculating the pool's volume?

### Follow-up questions:
1. What is the volume of your pool in gallons?
2. Do you need help calculating the pool's volume based on its dimensions?
3. Is the pool a standard shape like rectangular, circular, or custom?
4. Would you like to know how to convert between different units like cubic feet or liters to gallons?
5. Are you interested in learning how pool water is affected by its shape?

#### Tip: To estimate the volume of a rectangular pool, multiply the pool's length, width, and depth to get cubic feet, then convert to gallons (1 cubic foot = 7.48 gallons).
