Soda can

Common can sizes
| Size | Volume | Height (in) |
|---|---|---|
| Mini can | 7.5 fl oz | 4.2 |
| Standard can | 12 fl oz | 4.83 |
| Tall can | 16 fl oz | 6.19 |
A tall can holds about a third more soda than a standard can but shares roughly the same diameter, so the added volume comes almost entirely from extra height rather than a wider can body.
Weight
An empty aluminum soda can weighs approximately 0.5 ounces (14 to 15 grams). Once filled with 12 fluid ounces of soda, the total weight is about 12.7 ounces (360 grams), since a fluid ounce of soda weighs slightly more than an ounce due to sugar content.
Soda can vs coffee mug
| Container | Height (in) | Volume |
|---|---|---|
| Soda can | 4.83 | 12 fl oz |
| Coffee mug | 3.75 to 4 | 8 to 12 fl oz |
A standard soda can and a typical coffee mug hold a similar volume, though the can is usually somewhat taller and narrower, shaped for stacking and shipping efficiency rather than for comfortable handheld drinking.
