If both bags are the same size, there would be more cans in the crushed can bag and it would weigh 3 or 4 times more than the bag without any crushed cans.

If the cans were sealed, the air inside would add to the weight of the bag. as the uncrushed cans would leave a lot of air in the bag that would be lighter so a bag of crushed would weigh more as there would be more cans in there
