Propane tanks are most commonly referred to by their water capacity volume.

Propane tanks are normally filled to 80% of its water capacity.

For example, a 120 gallon tank will hold approximately 100 gallons of propane when completely full.

Since propane is a gas, it needs room to expand. This extra "room" that is in the tank allows the propane to expand. Depending on the ambient temperature outside, propane may expand more or less.
