If the liquid is water, 16.
what if the liquid is Tomato Juice?
Then the question is meaningless. Liquid ounces is a measure of volume. Pounds is a measure of weight. It's like asking how many inches are in a minute.
It just so happens that the definition of a liquid ounce was based on the weight of water. That's why you can convert the two IF the liquid in question is water. If it's not water, you have to find the density of the substance and and divide the weight by the density to get the volume.
Fluid ounces measure liquid or gaseous volume, so the weight in pounds of a certain volume of a liquid would depend on its density.
Water, for example, has a density of 0.066 lb per fl. oz. Thus one pound of water would contain 15.15 fluid ounces.
Ounces as a unit of weight, however, is different. There are 16 ounces to a pound.
If we had to guess about what the question is getting at ... and we do ... it seems
to be asking: "How many fluid ounces of something weigh one pound ?"
The answer, of course, depends entirely on what substance the fluid ounces
are full of.
If the fluid ounces are full of air, it will take many many of them to weigh a pound.
If the fluid ounces are full of water, then perhaps around 16 of them weigh a pound.
If the fluid ounces are full of Mercury, then one of them plus a few more drops
weighs close to a full pound.
If the fluid ounces are empty, then no matter how many of them you collect,
you've accumulated no weight at all.
There are 16 ounces in a pound (solid)! There are 8 ounces in a cup (liquid)!
There are eight ounces in a cup.
One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce."
