how does cal-hypo compare to bleach

[stualden]

I do not use cal-hypo in my pool, but, no, 16 fluid oz. cannot be equated with 1 lb.

Then could someone please provide the conversion factor?

Here is the conversion. Just got a fresh 100# container of cal hypo and there was a big blue scoop included. 24 fluid oz --> 700 grams --> approx 1.5 pounds. Verified this with a scale too. The grams --> pounds (avdp) conversion numbers work out too. The ounce scale verified to be liquid too. So, one 16 oz cup full of the stuff is pretty close to a pound.

OK. I stand corrected. That is interesting that 16 oz (volume) does equal a pound (weight) for cal-hypo. This won't be true of all substances, however.
