The volume of a pound of C-4 explosive can vary depending on its density, which is around 1.59 g/cm^3. If we assume this density, then 1 pound of C-4 would have a volume of roughly 0.72 cubic inches.
The feathers "take up more room" than the lead. It would be hard to compress the feathers to make them as dense as lead. The feathers have more volume.
Quart is an obsolete unit of volume; pound is a unit of mass.
A liter measures volume where a pound is a measure of weight. You would need the density of whatever you wanted to convert to figure this out.
In a quarter pound of what? Since the volume for a given weight will vary by what the substance is, there is no set answer to this question.
The two are incompatible; a litre is a current volume measurement and a pound is an obsolete mass measurement.

A pound of C4 and a website with no actual answer.

Weight doesn't tell you the volume. One pound of air, one pound of water, and one pound of gold all have vastly different volumes.
The total length as at December 2010 is currently20000 miles according to the Million Pound Drop on C4 tonight.
A pound of bricks and a pound of feathers weigh the same because they both weigh one pound. The difference lies in their volume, with bricks being denser and taking up less space compared to feathers.
A pound coin is 2.25 cm in diameter and 3.15mm thick. Therefore the volume of a pound coin is 1252.5 cubic millimetres or approx. 1.25 cubic centimetres.

To find the volume of a 100-pound brick of gold, we first need to know the density of gold, which is approximately 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter. Since 1 pound is about 453.592 grams, a 100-pound brick weighs approximately 45,359.2 grams. Using the formula for volume (volume = mass/density), the volume of the gold brick is about 2,347.7 cubic centimeters.
A pound of feathers and a pound of lead weigh the same; both are one pound. The difference lies in their volume and density: feathers are much less dense than lead, so it takes a larger volume of feathers to equal one pound compared to the compact volume of lead. Therefore, while they weigh the same, they appear quite different in size and form.
