How to Convert Exaliter to Gallon (UK)
To liters: multiply by 10¹⁸. To km³: multiply by 10⁶. To petaliters: multiply by 1,000.
1 EL = 10¹⁸ L = 10¹⁵ m³ = 10⁶ km³ = 1,000 PL.
For example, 1 Exaliter (EL) = 2.199692e+17 Gallon (UK) (gal (UK)).

About Exaliter (EL)
Definition
The exaliter is a unit of volume equal to 10¹⁸ liters, or one million cubic kilometers.
Mathematical Relationship
1 EL = 10¹⁸ L = 10¹⁵ m³ = 10⁶ km³ = 1,000 PL.
Conversion Formula
To liters: multiply by 10¹⁸. To km³: multiply by 10⁶. To petaliters: multiply by 1,000.
Practical Applications
No practical applications — this scale exists only for astronomical and theoretical comparisons.
Interesting Facts
All the water on Earth (oceans, ice, groundwater, lakes, rivers, atmosphere) totals about 1.386 EL.
Common Mistakes
Almost never encountered, so mistakes are rare. The main risk is confusion with other 'E' prefixes (e.g., eV in energy).
Educational Tips
Think of the exaliter as the 'planet volume' unit. Earth's oceans ≈ 1.335 EL. Prefix: exa = 10¹⁸ = quintillion.
About Gallon (UK) (gal (UK))
Definition
The UK (imperial) gallon is a unit of volume equal to 160 UK fluid ounces, or exactly 4.54609 liters.
Mathematical Relationship
1 UK gal = 4 UK qt = 8 UK pt = 160 UK fl oz = 4.54609 L ≈ 1.201 US gal.
Conversion Formula
To liters: multiply by 4.54609. To US gallons: multiply by 1.20095. To cubic meters: multiply by 0.00454609.
Practical Applications
UK road signs (mpg), older fuel consumption references, and some Caribbean and Middle Eastern markets that still use imperial units.
Interesting Facts
A UK gallon is about 20% larger than a US gallon. A car rated at 40 mpg (UK) gets only about 33 mpg (US).
Common Mistakes
Misinterpreting UK mpg as US mpg — UK figures look higher because the imperial gallon is larger.
Educational Tips
UK gallon ≈ 4.55 L ≈ 1.2 US gallons. The UK gallon was defined so that 1 gallon of water = 10 pounds.
