This is a case in which one measure is of weight and the other
is a measure of volume. So this is like weighing
an elephant with a tape measure.

Nevertheless, as people often are working
with solutions in which the primary
constituent is water, it is possible to get some
really close approximations with minimal effort.
There are 29.57352956 cubic centimeter in
a fluid ounce. One cubic centimeter
is one milliliter. And one CC of water
weighs about one gram depending
on temperature and pressure. So
one can guess that a dilute water solution
weighs about 29.6 grams.
Of course, if we are talking about molten
lead the weight will be rather different.
But still one get an answer if
they know the specific gravity of what is
being weighed.

Better yet measure the weight
of the graduate cylinder on a scale while empty
and then measure the same once the material of
interest is in it. And then you can work out
the ratio of weight to volume.

The other poster who stated that there are
30 ml in a fluid ounce, that is only true if
you are a nurse. Its not true is you are a
chemist, chem tech, or other type science major.
