Question 1

Why isn't there a universal conversion factor?

Accepted Answer

There is no universal constant because different liquids have different densities. For example, a fluid ounce of honey weighs significantly more than a fluid ounce of water.

Question 2

Does temperature affect this conversion?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as liquids heat up or cool down, their density changes slightly, which can affect the accuracy of the weight conversion.
