Water is a very stable compoud. like the other response we are very familiar with water. 1mL of water equals 1g we know the molecular weight and also when reactions take place with heat often water is a final product.

The question isnt very specific as into how your comparing a substance/what are you exactly comparing but hopefully this helps let me know if you need anything else.

It's familiar to us; we already know how much water weights. It's also very difficult to compress it, so its volume will usually be the same.
