How Much Is 0.16 Cups of Corn Syrup in Grams?
0.16 cups of corn syrup weighs 52.48 g. This is based on corn syrup having a density of 328g per cup. Because cups measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 0.16 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.16 cups of corn syrup
- 1 cup of corn syrup = 328g
