There is no way to compare. It's like comparing apples to Oranges. A pound of lead may only take up a few fluid ounces of volume, but a pound of feathers would take up hundreds of fluid ounces of volume. There is no direct correlation between units of weight and units of volume.

The density of lead is 11.34 oz/fluid oz; so a pound of lead would take up only 1.411 fluid ounces of volume. By comparison, gold has a density of 19.3 oz/fluid oz; so a pound of gold would take up only 0.829 fluid oz. (This is using Avoirdupois ounces, not Troy ounces.)
