How Much Is 8 Ounces of Corn Syrup in Tablespoons?
8 ounces of corn syrup equals 11.06 tbsp. That's 226.80g, and Corn syrup has a density of 328g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 8 ounces of corn syrup
- Convert ounces to grams: 8 × 28.35 = 226.80g
- 1 cup of corn syrup = 328g
- 226.80g ÷ 328g/cup = 0.69 cups × 16 = 11.06 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
