You would want to use the density in grams per cubic centimeter.
1 m = 100 cm
1 kg = 1000 g

800+%2A+%281000%29+%2A+%281%2F100%29%2A%281%2F100%29%2A%281%2F100%29 (kg/m^3)(g/kg)(m/cm)(m/cm)(m/cm)
=0.800 g/cm^2

Bottle is filled to 50 cm^2, so this is 50%2A0.800=40 grams.

Combined weight of bottle and filled contents is 40%2B24.5=64.5 grams.
