Total material volume x density.

So simple, even a child can do it.

You have not provided adequate information to calculate the material volume, nor the weight.

Add up areas times thicknesses of all plates making up the tank (all in meter units); multiply total by 7840 kg. Account also for any additional bracing etc.

Why do you need to know its weight? Are you transporting it by air?
