Weight Versus Volume Knowing the difference between weight and volume is important and allows you to measure ingredients accurately to ensure your recipe turns out correctly. Volume is the amount of space a substance occupies. Weight is the heaviness or mass of an item  Water: 1 cup (8 fl oz) weighs 8 oz Honey: 1 cup (8 fl oz) weighs 12 oz https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/volu me-to-mass How many ounces in a gallon of milk? A gallon of milk contains 128 fluid ounces. This is true for all types of liquid gallons in the US customary system, not just milk. How many ounces in a gallon of ice cream? There are 128 fluid ounces in a gallon of ice cream, just like with liquid measurements. However, ice cream is denser and contains air, so a gallon of ice cream will weigh less than a gallon of liquid like milk or water.  Mass To calculate mass, multiply the density of a substance by its volume: Mass = Density × Volume Volume To calculate volume, divide the mass by the density: Volume = Mass / Density Density To calculate density, divide the mass by the volume: Density = Mass / Volume You can also use the density-mass-volume triangle to remember how to solve these equations. Cover the quantity you want to find to see what operation to perform on the other two quantities. In the metric system, mass is usually measured in grams (g) and volume is measured in cubic centimeters (cm3) or milliliters (mL). This means that density is typically expressed as g/cm3 or g/mL
