How Much Is 17.01 Grams of Egg Whites in Cups?
Converting 17.01 grams of egg whites to cups gives 0.07 cups. Divide by the density of egg whites (243g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.01 grams of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 17.01g ÷ 243g/cup = 0.07 cups
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.

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
