Weight and Volume
The amount of oil in a can of cooking spray is almost exactly what the weight on the package states. Basically, it will only vary as the settings/accuracy of the machine that is used to fill the can. The food industry does the right thing by putting the weight of a packaged product on the package, and that stated weight does not include the weight of that packaging. It's the weight of the contents. In addition, about all that is in a can of cooking spray other than the cooking oil itself is the compressed gas used as a propellent. And the compressed gas (usually either nitrous oxide or carbon dioxide) weighs almost nothing in comparison to the weight of the oil. Hope that helps.
