How Much Is 1.5 Teaspoons of Corn Syrup in Ounces?

1.5 teaspoons of corn syrup weighs 0.36 oz. This is based on corn syrup having a density of 328g per cup. Because teaspoons measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 1.5 teaspoons.

Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 6.83g/tsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 1.5 teaspoons of corn syrup
  2. 1 teaspoon of corn syrup = 6.83g
  3. 1.5 × 6.83 = 10.25g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 10.25 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.36 oz

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Sticky liquids like corn syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring spoon first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units

What is a Teaspoon?

One teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters. There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon and 48 teaspoons in a cup. Teaspoon accuracy matters most with leaveners like baking powder and baking soda, where small differences affect rise and texture.

What is an Ounce?

An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.36 oz, based on corn syrup having a density of 328g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 6.83 (grams per teaspoon for corn syrup), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 1.5 teaspoons: 1.5 × 6.83 = 10.25g, then 10.25 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.36 oz.
Weighing corn syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring spoon first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of corn syrup changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
