The difference in grams is the bucket capacity in milliliters or cc. The water can be at 4 degrees Celsius, or correct for the expansion of the water at any other temperature.

∙ 12y agoThe SI unit for volume is the cubic metre. This is quite a large volume, so in everyday usage the litre is much more common.
A cubic metre is the volume of a body on metre long, one metre wide, and one metre deep. There are one thousand litres in a cubic metre.
To measure a bucket, you would use litres.

∙ 11y agoI would use a measuring cup or graduated cylinder. Once I had measured the
capacity of the bucket, I could most easily remember it and describe it to others
in terms of pints, quarts, gallons, or liters, depending on the size of the bucket
and perhaps the national origin of the person to whom I was reporting it.
alternatively,
the liter
one liter volume equals 10x10x10 centimeters
measure the diameter and height of the bucket in centimeters
multiply the diameter by .7894
multiply this by the height
then move the decimal point three places to the left to get liters
( pi/4 x d x h ) / 1000 = liters

What is the units of a beaker and what does it measure?
Beakers measure liquid volume. The units can be any fraction of a liter, but most commonly milliliters.
What is a sensible metric unit to find out the volume of a bucket?
The SI (Systeme Internationale or 'Metric') unit of Mass is the Kilogram A standard bucket (c. 5 gallons) of water would have a mass of approximately 25Kg, so the Kilogram would be scientifically correct, as well as scale-appropriate. Note that the Kilogram is not a unit of Weight - the Metric unit of weight is the Newton, N and represents the force exerted by the mass due to the force of gravity. That is, even on the moon, the bucket would still have a Mass of 25Kg (No, really!), but its Weight would be drastically reduced due to the greatly reduced gravity.
A technique used to calculate the volume of irregularly shaped solids?
To calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object, a good idea would be to get a bucket full of water and submerge that object into the bucket. Then measure the amount of water that runs over and that should be the volume of your object. For example if you take a sealed bottle of bottle stick it in a bucket filled with water, then let it's volume filll the space and displace the water. The water that is displaced or the water that runs out is the volume of your irregular shape. Get it?
What metric unit would you use to measure water in an ice cube?
The answer depends on the scale: it could be millilitres, or litres, or cubic metres, or cubic kilometres.
What instrument measures meters?
A meter stick would be one. A metric tape measure would be another.A measuring tape.a rulerA meter stickyou can use a metric tape or a yardstick or a metre trundle wheel and finally a metre stickA tape measure, calibrated in meters.A meterstickusually a metric measuring tape.
What metric conversion would you use to measure a bucket?
Please specify what you want to measure about the bucket, for example its height, width, circumference, volume, color, albedo, etc.
What unit of measure in the metric system would you use to measure the volume of a soda container?
mL
What metric unit would be used to measure the volume of a glass of water?

The answer depends on what characteristic you wish to measure: its mass, length, volume etc.
What metric unit would you use to measure the volume of liquid in a eye dropper?

What metric measure would measure the size of a raindrop?
It depends on what you mean by size: its length, volume, surface area or even its mass.
How do you measure volume in kiloliters?
The method used would be the same as that used to measure the volume of any item. For convenience in calculations, metric units should be used for all measurements.
What metric measurement would you use to measure volume?
cm³ (cm cubed)
How do you measure volume in the metric system?
Volume is measure as width times height by depth no matter the system you're using. The metric system would just define the type of measurement you would use, such as liters instead of gallons.
What would you measure the volume of liquid water with?
Milliliters/mL (Metric) or Fluid Ounces/Fl Oz (Imperial)
