Rg has something to do with fuels
The answer is number that relates to the performance of fuels in combustion engines

Yes, the answer is negative
Just to say the only circumstance I have come across Rg is in polymer chemistry. Rg is the radius of gyration of the polymer which gives an indication of it's size.
Isn't the formula for Gold

Spoiler

All the units except Pa cancel out, yet I can't seem to get the right answer..
