What is the conversion from grams to cups for solid foods?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Accurate conversion from grams to cups is possible only for water, which is how weight and volume are related in the metric system. The following conversion will yield too much of a solid more dense (heavier) than water, and too little of a solid less dense (lighter) than water.

First convert grams to liters: 1000 grams (1kg) 1 mililiter (ml).

Liters and milliliters can then be converted directly cups:

1 militers 1 teaspoon 15 ml 1 fluid oz. 100 ml 1 cup 1 liter 4.2 cups 1 liter 1.06 quarts 1 liter = .26 gallon

Here are the correct conversion factors within a few tenths of an mL:

5mL = 1 teaspoon (level teaspoon)

15mL = 1 tablespoon (level tablespoon)

30mL = 1 ounce

240mL =8 ounces (1 cup)

1000mL/1 liter =33.8 ounces

Keep in mind 1gram = 1mL

Answer #2

Technically, there is a conversion from grams to cups, but unfortunately, it has letters and numbers in it. The formula would be:

c = g *1/d * 0.00423

where

c = cups

g=grams

d = density = g/mL

and 0.00423 = cup/mL

So, if you don't know the density of the substance you are trying to measure (i.e. sugar) look it up online and go from there. Good luck!

What is the metric unit use to find the area of a city?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The metric unit commonly used to measure the area of a city is square kilometers (km²). For smaller areas or detailed measurements, square meters (m²) might also be used, but for the overall size of a city, square kilometers are the standard unit.

How many cl in 480 ml?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First, note that cl is the same as centiliters and ml is the same as milliliters. Thus, when you are asking to convert 480 cl to ml, you are asking to convert 480 centiliters to milliliters.

A centiliter is larger than a milliliter. Simply put, cl is larger than ml. In fact, a centiliter is "10 to the power of 1" larger than a milliliter.

Since a centiliter is 10^1 larger than a milliliter, it means that the conversion factor for cl to ml is 10^1. Therefore, you can multiply 480 cl by 10^1 to get 480 cl converted to ml.

Here is the answer with the math showing you how to convert 480 cl to ml by multiplying 480 by the conversion factor of 10^1.

How can convert hm3 in mmbtu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cubic meters (cbm) are units of volume, while the MMBTU (i.e. mln BTU) is the unit of calorific value. Therefore the calculation with depend on type of fuel your are looking at.
E.g. 1 MMBTU = ~28 cbm of LNG

How many GSM in 1 micron?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

None, since there can be no conversion. gsm (grams per square metre is a measure of mass per unit area - a kind of density whereas a micron is a measure of length. The two measure different characteristics and, according to the most basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at comparisons or conversions between the two are fundamentally flawed. A material with high density would be much thinner (fewer microns) than one with low density.

How do you convert cmh to kilowatt?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To convert a given number of megawatt-hours to kilowatt-hours you must multiply the number of megawatt-hours by 1000 to get the equivalent number of kilowatt-hours. <><><> Any text book or reference site about how to calculate "energy used" will tell you that 1 megawatt-hour is equivalent to 1000 kilowatt-hours. Knowing that, we can set up a "Fraction equal to 1" as follows: [1 megawatt-hour] ---------------------- = 1

[1000 kilowatt-hours]

And, equally,

[1000 KW-h] -------------- = 1

[1 MW-h]

So, for example, to calculate what 10 MW-h is equivalent to in KW-h: Multiply the thing you want to convert by the "Fraction equal to 1" and then cross-out the matching units top and bottom of the fraction:

1000 kW-h x 10 MW-h ---------------------------- = 10,000 kW-h

1 MW-h

IF you know for sure what the right numbers are to make up a "Fraction equal to 1", that trick of multiplying by such a "Fraction equal to 1" is a very neat way to convert one equivalent type of unit into another equivalent type. If you do it right, this method will never let you down! For instance:

[1 inch] -------------------------- = 1

[2.5400 centimeters]

So to convert 5 cm into inches:

[1 in] x 5 cm

---------------- = 1.9685 in

[2.5400 cm]

What is 438 cm converted to feet and inches?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The linear conversion factor between Metric and Imperial is

1 inch = 2.54 cm

So for 438 cm the are 438 / 2.54 = 172.44 inches.

Remember too that there are 12 inches in 1 foot. So divide the answer by '12'

172.44 / 12

= 14 ft 4.44 ins. or 14 ft. 4 11/25 inches

Why is a universal system of measurement necessary in science What are some units of the system used now and what do they measure?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Almost all real science involves measurements. A universal system of measurement

is necessary, or at least very very convenient, in science, in order to make it possible

for different scientists to tell each other about their work ... what they did and what

the results were ... and even for different scientists in different places to work together

on the same thing.

The universal system that's used in today's world is the "SI" system, or the "metric" system.

Look it up and read about it, either on line or in a real book, to learn about its units.

Here are three of them to get you started:

-- the Meter

-- the Kilogram

-- the Second
