Volume
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).
Meniscus
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.
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.
Surface Tension
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.
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.

No, the amount of a liquid is volume. Density is independent of volume.
well............it is called surface tension! You will learn about it in 6th grade science!!! Thanks! :)
Surface Tention
a sphere is the most efficient shape to contain volume. surface tension draws the drop into the sphere, like elastic.
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,
The amount the liquid will expand in transit. The weight of the liquid. Legal weight limits.
