Volume is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from Latin *volūmen*, which was a neuter noun in classical Latin but followed the pattern of other Latin neuter words ending in *-men* that became masculine in Romance languages when the neuter gender collapsed. This shift occurred because Portuguese speakers reanalyzed these words according to the masculine gender system that replaced Latin's three-gender structure.
