This is lifted from http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/60749.html
The density of water is close to 1 av. oz. per fl. oz., but not
quite. A gallon of water weighs 8.34 pounds. There are 128 fl. oz. in
a gallon and 16 av. oz. in a pound, so
128 fl. oz. of water weigh 8.34 * 16 av. oz.
and therefore
1 fl. oz. of water weighs 8.34 * 16 / 128 av. oz.
= 1.0425 av. oz.
So, 12 fluid oz of water weighs
12*1.0425 av. oz.

12 oz, plus the weight of the bottle, so weigh the bottle after
you drink the water. 6-8-12 or 16 oz. size? <}:-})
