	~~Gases~~ are also measured in and sold by volume, but this is trickier because gases change their volume depending on pressure. When measuring a gas, which is very compressible (its density changes quite a bit when put under pressure), a standard [[temperature]] and pressure must be used. Different organizations assume different temperatures and pressures, but these pressures are generally about 1 [[standard atmosphere]] and between 0[[Celsius\|°C]] and 25°C.
