Capacity is volume, SI unit : cubic metre
The words capacity and volume have totally different meanings. Capacity must refer to something in particular, and the questioner must state what units he wishes to use to measure the capacity of a particular thing. . example:- what is the Current carrying capacity of a copper wire which is 2mm diameter? Another example:- what is the maximum capacity of the football stadium in London? What is the capacity of most Gas Bottles used for a gas barbecue, expressed in Pounds of compressed gas?
Words such as capacity, heavy, large, size etc. do not have any units whatever. When you ask about capacity you must also state what it is that you wish to know the capacity of. You must also state what Units you wish to use. You must state these things in your question. Example:- What is the capacity of most wine bottles expressed in litres?. Another example :- What is the capacity of most car batteries , expressed in Amp/Hours? What is the capacity of the Gas Bottle I use with my gas barbecue , expressed in Pound weight?
Any unit of volume is a unit of capacity (and vice versa).
A few of the popular ones include . . .
-- fluid ounce
-- milliliter
-- cup
-- pint
-- quart
-- liter
-- cubic centimeter
-- cubic meter
-- gallon
-- hogshead
(Note: This is completely different from "capacitance". That's an electrical quantity,
and the units are different.)
The SI unit for volume is cubic meter; 1 m3 = 1 000 L.
Units used in US, UK, Canada are obsolete and not recommended.
A standard soda can has a capacity of 355 milliliters.
Milliliters or fluid ounces would be reasonable metric units to measure the capacity of a drinking glass. These units are commonly used for measuring liquid volumes and would provide a clear indication of the glass's capacity.
The capacity of a thimble is typically around 1 to 2 milliliters.
No, litres (L) and millilitres (mL) are not the only metric units for capacity. There is also cubic metres (m3) and cubic centimetres (cm3).
Approximately, US units of capacity equal to 3.79 liters
would be:Amount : 3.79 gallons liquid US (gal in volume and capacity)Equals : 14.35 liters (l / volume and capacity)Fraction : 14 7/20 liters (l / volume and capacity)
There is no relationship between units of mass and either length of capacity. Units of capacity are the cubed units of length.

The value depends on the units used to measure capacity.
To calculate capacity, you need the length, height, and width of your tank
It is cubic units
Capacity is the amount of space that a container can hold. Gallons, quarts, and pints are all units of capacity.
A standard soda can has a capacity of 355 milliliters.
Your question is too vague, the capacity of what? Capacity of containers can be measured with volume, and units would be liters, quarts, or gallons. Capacity of computer systems is often measured in bytes, with units like megabytes or gigabytes. And capacity of some things like trucks and ships is often measured by weight, so the units would be kilograms, pounds, or tons.

Milliliters or fluid ounces would be reasonable metric units to measure the capacity of a drinking glass. These units are commonly used for measuring liquid volumes and would provide a clear indication of the glass's capacity.
