Why?

In physics, a fluid is a substance that continually deforms (flows) under an applied shear stress.

To quote wiki:
How HEAVY something may be is related directly to its mass.
Better post: 4048467 said:Oh, ok. Well then can you explain that to me? Because a balloon full of air and a balloon full of water the same size basically look similar, but the one with water is much heavier. How is that so?

Water appears lighter than other liquids because it has a lower density. Density is the measure of how much mass is contained within a given volume. Since water molecules are relatively small and spaced further apart compared to other liquids, it has a lower density and therefore appears less heavy.
Water may feel heavier when held in a container because of the force of gravity. When water is contained, it is compressed and takes up less space, increasing its density. This increase in density can make it feel heavier when held in a container compared to when it is freely flowing.
The weight of water is not affected by temperature. However, temperature does affect the density of water. As water is heated, its molecules move faster and are therefore more spread out, resulting in a lower density. Conversely, when water is cooled, its molecules move slower and become more compact, increasing its density.
Ice floats on water because it is less dense than liquid water. As water molecules freeze, they form a crystal structure with more space between the molecules. This increase in space results in a decrease in density, causing ice to float on top of liquid water.
Water has a different weight than other liquids because it has a unique molecular structure and composition. The size and arrangement of its molecules contribute to its density and overall weight. Other liquids may have different molecular structures and compositions, resulting in different weights and densities.
