Best Answer

Jam contains a high proportion of water, so it would depend on the physical strength of the jar. I'm assuming that this is a glass jar? Most likely, the jar would crack or shatter as the pressure around it was decreased, allowing the water in the jam to boil off into the vacuum.

Why doese a jam jar have 145 grams in it?

The contents of the jam jar is usually around 145 grams (i.e. not including the weight of the jar). This is usually because (although jam is a preserve, when it is made industrially it is not boiled to the extent that it would be when homemade, so is less "preserved" than it used to be), jam is not as long-life as it used to be. It is advised that it is kept in the fridge, so a 145g jar is usually the right size to fit in the fridge door.
