How to Convert Grams of Table Salt to Cups
Step 1: Convert grams to mL using: mL = grams ÷ density.
Step 2: Convert mL to the target volume unit (like cups, tbsp, etc.). E.g., 1 cup = 236.588 mL.
For 100 grams of olive oil (density ≈ 0.847 g/mL), step 1: 100 ÷ 0.847 ≈ 118.06 mL. Step 2: 118.06 ÷ 236.588 ≈ 0.50 cups.
Example: Converting 10 grams of table salt results in about 0.035 cups.
What is the Density of Table Salt?
The density of table salt is 1.217 g/mL.
How do I calculate the Density of Table Salt?
Here’s a simple 2-step process to find the density (in grams per milliliter):
- Step 1: Weigh 1 cup (236.588 mL) of table salt
- Place an empty measuring cup on a kitchen scale and "tare" it.
- Fill the cup until you have exactly 1 cup of table salt.
- The mass should be about 287.9 grams.
- Step 2: Use the density formula:
Density = Mass (g) / Volume (mL)
So, with ~287.9 g in 236.588 mL, the density = 1.217 g/mL.
