The amount a container can hold is called the volume, measured in litres if you're using the metric system(SI.) The answer is capacity or the volume of the container and it depends on how big the container is!
The amount or volume a container can hold.
Capacity
Here's how to proceed:Fill container B with 3 liters.Pour the 3 liters from container B into container A.Fill container B again with 3 liters.Carefully pour from container B into container A, until container A is full.Container A already had 3 liters, so it only takes 2 more liters to fill it to 5 liters, leaving 1 liter remaining in container B.
The space inside that container is 24" x 24" x 24" = 13,824 cubic inches. That's 59.844 gallons of space, whether or not there's anything in it. A gallon is not an amount of water or gasoline or anything else. It's an amount of space, just like a cubic inch or a cubic foot is.
The amount it can hold is its volume.
The amount a container will hold is the volume of the container. It is also the Capacity if the container has liquid in it.

The amount of anything a container can hold is it's volume or its capacity.
it can hold about 8-10 liters of liguid but to a regular liquid container

The amount or volume a container can hold.
Capacity is a measure of the quantity that a container can hold. There need not be anything in the container. The amount is some measure of an object - it can be the value (amount of money), volume (amount of water), mass (amount of matter).
The amount of substance a container can hold depends on the volume or capacity of the container. This can be measured in liters, milliliters, gallons, or any other unit of volume. The container's size and shape will determine its capacity.
Mass - the amount of somthing a container can hold
Volume (or capacity) describes this.
