How Much Is 0.23 Cups of Egg Whites in Ounces?
0.23 cups of egg whites weighs 1.97 oz. This is based on egg whites having a density of 243g per cup. Because cups measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 0.23 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.23 cups of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 0.23 × 243 = 55.89g
- Convert grams to ounces: 55.89 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.97 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
One large egg white weighs approximately 30g and one large egg yolk weighs approximately 17g. Weighing separated eggs is more reliable than counting, since individual eggs vary in size.
