Volume is strictly geometrical; it refers to an amount of space. Capacity can be an amount of anything. Heat capacity, for example, is the amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a given substance.
Please type in: What is the difference between capacity and volume?- This is for people who don't under stand this answer.
Volume is the physical dimensions of a space and can be said to have so many cubic units. Capacity depends on what you put in that volume usually measured in pound or KGs. A particular volume could have the capacity of 2 pounds of lead but only 2 grams of feathers.

The amount of fluid a container can hold is called what?
It is usually called the capacity. It is basically the same thing as the volume.
What is difference between nominal and working capacity in storage tanks?
1. Nominal capacity is volume from the bottom up to the top of the shell 2. Working capacity is volume between LLL and HLL
What measurement in addition to vital capacity is needed before you can calculate your total lung capacity?
Residual volume
What is the difference between competency and capacity?
Competence would be a ratio, Capacity is max amount, volume, etc..
If A sponge and a brick that are the same size they have the same what?
no; they have the same volume but their mass is quite different; density is mass/volume and the sponge has much lower density
How many cubic units needed to fill the space inside a figure?
Its capacity or volume - measured in the same units.Its capacity or volume - measured in the same units.Its capacity or volume - measured in the same units.Its capacity or volume - measured in the same units.
Is capacity the same as volume?
Yes, volume is the same as capacity. For instance, a pint pot can hold a pint, and so its capacity is a pint, or it will overflow.
What is the Formula to find capacity when given volume?
Capacity is the same as the volume of the inside of a container. Often, in mathematical exercises, the internal and external volumes are assumed to be the same (ie thickness of the container is zero). In this case, the capacity is the same as the internal or external volume.
Are capacity and volume the same thing?
not at all
Is 0.7L measures of capacity is the same as 700ml?
Yes. They are the same volume. Good work !
What is the volume capacity of a flask?
The answer depends on the flask: they are not all the same size.
How do you convert volume into capacity?
You don't do anything, they're the same thing.
What is the volume of the capacity?
Capacity is the volume of the container.
What is volume capacity?
volume and capacity is math
Is the volume of an object the same as its capacity?
No, capacity requires knowing the size of the objects filling the volume. Something might be 2 m3 but that doesn't mean its truck capacity is 2. As a matter of fact, its truck capacity would be zero.
The amount of fluid a container can hold is called what?
It is usually called the capacity. It is basically the same thing as the volume.
What word means the same as volume?
Some words that mean the same as volume are: space, sound (level), book, publication, amount, property (as in magnitude).
