How Much Is 7.5 Teaspoons of Cornmeal in Ounces?
7.5 teaspoons of cornmeal weighs 0.83 oz. This is based on cornmeal having a density of 150g 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 7.5 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 7.5 teaspoons of cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon of cornmeal = 3.13g
- 7.5 × 3.13 = 23.44g
- Convert grams to ounces: 23.44 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.83 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Pour grains into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not shake or tap, as this settles the grains and increases the weight.
