How Much Is 240 Milliliters of Coconut Oil in Grams?
240 milliliters of coconut oil equals 221.14 g. Coconut oil has a density of 218g per cup (0.92g per milliliter), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 240 milliliters of honey would be 344.90 g.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 240 milliliters of coconut oil
- 1 milliliter of coconut oil = 0.92g
- 240 × 0.92 = 221.14g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units
What is a Milliliter?
Milliliters measure volume and are used worldwide for cooking and baking. For water at room temperature, 1 ml weighs approximately 1 gram, but this relationship does not hold for other ingredients.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
