Volume
The amount of a substance that a liquid holds will be the solubility of that substance in that volume of the liquid - at that temperature.
They sometime are and sometimes not. The milk that I buy is not in a cylindrical container. So the mathematical [logical] analysis of the question is that the premise is false and so the question is not valid. Having said that, a sphere is the most efficient shape in the sense that a spherical container required the smallest amount of container material (glass or plastic) for the largest volume of the liquid. However, a spherical container is not stable, and the liquid could spill out. The best stable shape is a cylinder.
You can not measure the volume of a liquid with a measurement designed to determine length. A centiliter is a measurement of volume, or the amount of space that a liquid can consume inside an object. A centimeter, would be a measurement of length and a centigram is a measurement of mass (weight).

The surface area of the liquid can decrease when there is increase in the temperature of the day,what is called evaporation is been taking place in the surface of the liquid,wchich decreases the liquid area.
Surface tension and gravitational force are two factors that determine how spherical a drop of a liquid will be. Surface tension tends to minimize the surface area of the drop, leading to a spherical shape, while gravitational force can distort the shape of the drop depending on its magnitude and direction.
Surface tension is the physical phenomenon that causes a liquid drop to assume a spherical shape. This is because a spherical shape minimizes the surface area of the drop, thereby reducing surface tension energy.
Liquid water tends to form spherical droplets due to surface tension, which minimizes the surface area of the water droplet. This results in a spherical shape, as it has the smallest surface area for a given volume of water.
Prescriptions for corrective vision for nearsighted persons always include a spherical part. If the person has astigmatism along with nearsightedness, the prescription will also include a cylindrical part. A small amount of a liquid with a high surface tension in a near vacuum in space with no disturbing gravitational field will assume a spherical form, because that minimizes the area of surface for any particular volume.
Liquids with high surface tension, such as water, form spherical drops due to this property. Surface tension is the cohesive force that causes molecules at the surface of a liquid to be drawn inward, creating a spherical shape to minimize surface area.
A liquid or semi-liquid without a container in microgravity takes on the shape that has the least amount of surface area compared to the volume. That would be a sphere. Now, if it is turning there will be a slight bulge at the equator of the ball, which there is.
The reason mercury droplets are spherical is because they do easily wet other surfaces. For this reason, mercury forms spheres, which have the smallest possible ration of surface area to volume.
A drop of liquid acquires a spherical shape due to surface tension, which causes the liquid molecules to be attracted to each other, minimizing the surface area and forming the most efficient shape, a sphere, to contain the volume of liquid. This shape has the least surface area for a given volume, making it favorable for liquids.
Bubbles are formed due to a combination of surface tension and gas trapped in a liquid. The surface tension of the liquid causes the bubble to retain its spherical shape. When a gas is introduced into the liquid, the surface tension pulls the liquid molecules together around the gas to form the bubble.
One is the liquid's surface tension. A drop of water will be quite spherical because is has strong surface tension, meaning the edges of the droplet are drawn into the centre. Another factor could be the speed with which the drop falls, as the air particles will have to be pushed apart quicker, making the droplet more streamlines, therefore less spherical.
The energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by a given amount is known as surface energy or surface tension. This energy is a result of the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules at the surface and is dependent on factors such as the type of liquid and the area increase.
A droplet is a very small drop of a liquid. It is typically used to describe tiny, spherical or nearly spherical particles of liquid. For example, raindrops are droplets of water falling from the sky, and when you put a drop of water on a surface,
