Can of Coca-Cola
355 mL of fizzy capitalism/Food & Drinks
A standard 12 oz can of Coca-Cola holds 355 mL of carbonated sugar water pressurized to about 2.7 atmospheres at room temperature. The full can weighs 384 grams and stands 12.2 cm tall. The internal pressure is what gives the can its surprising structural rigidity; dent it slightly and it collapses like a house of cards.
