    liquid paint has a liquid in it. dried paint is pure paint with no liquid. taking the same number of mole of paint (n/mol), both dried and liquid, the liquid would have more mass.(or weight). due to the liquid added to it.

    n = m/M

    since M (molar mass) is the same, n varies directly with m.

    i.e. m(dry paint) > m(liquid paint) when volumes are equal!

    but i have a question: were you talking chemistry?
