How Much Is 0.99 Ounces of Sunflower Seeds in Cups?
Converting 0.99 ounces of sunflower seeds to cups gives 0.20 cups. First convert to grams (0.99 oz = 28.07g), then divide by the density of sunflower seeds (140g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.99 ounces of sunflower seeds
- Convert ounces to grams: 0.99 × 28.35 = 28.07g
- 1 cup of sunflower seeds = 140g
- 28.07g ÷ 140g/cup = 0.20 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Ground and whole sunflower seeds have different densities. Make sure you are using the form your recipe specifies.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
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.
