How Much Is 120 Milliliters of Corn Syrup in Grams?
120 milliliters of corn syrup weighs 166.37 g. This is based on corn syrup having a density of 328g per cup. Because milliliters measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 120 milliliters.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 120 milliliters of corn syrup
- 1 milliliter of corn syrup = 1.39g
- 120 × 1.39 = 166.37g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

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.
