How much does a 20oz bottle of water weigh?

Answer 1

In contradiction to another comment, dry weight ounces and liquid volume ounces are equivalent for pure water. It is not a coincidence that the word "pint" (i.e. 16 ounces of liquid) and "pound" (i.e., 16 ounces of weight) sound almost the same.

1 once of water weighs exactly 1 ounce under standard conditions (pressure, temperature, etc.), so unless you need multi-decimal digit accuracy, you can use that as a rule. Soda will weigh slightly a little bit more than water due to the ingredients dissolved in its water, but that too is negligible.

Therefore, 20 ounces of soda weigh about 20 ounces (or 1 pound, 4 ounces or 1.25 pounds). The bottle or can weight will differ, but would probably be in the range of 0.5-1 oz. or 0.03125-0.0625 lb.

Answer 2

A fluid ounce is a measure of volume of a liquid. Some liquids are more dense than other fluids, so a fluid ounce of a dense liquid weighs more than a fluid ounce of a less dense liquid. A fluid ounce of water weighs one ounce.

Answer 3

The weight of liquids vary. However, 20 fluid ounces of water weighs 1.303968 pounds (591.47058 grams).

Answer 4

Twenty ounces is equal to 1.25 pounds. However, this does not include the weight of the bottle which may differ between brands.

Answer 5

Unit conversion can be confusing, especially if you are not fully aware of what is being converted. A full 20 ounce bottle of water weighs about 1.303968 pounds.

Answer 6

20 fluid ounces is equal to 1 pint (Imperial).

Answer 7

Different fluids weigh different amounts. This is why Salad/Vegetable Oil will float on top of water, the oil is lighter than water.

Answer 8

It is 5.56 newtons.

Answer 9

let's think about this.....liquid ounces (soda pop) and dry weight ounces (16 ounces in a pound) are NOT the same thing. Liquid doesn't come in "pounds". What you're looking for is a conversation of 20 liquid ounces to an equivilent dry weight (pounds)
