It is not accurate to equate weight with volume - this is a common mistake in cooking, and why bakers weigh flour rather than measure it. There are 113.4 grams in 4 ounces.

According to the USDA

1/2 cup of chopped raw celery is 50.5 grams

1/2 cup of chopped raw carrots is 64 grams

1/2 cup of cooked carrot slices is 78 grams

1/2 cup of raw spinach is 15 grams.

It is usually 1/2 cup, 1/4 pound or 100 grams. It can vary based on who is determining the serving size. Portion sizes, however, the amount you serve a person during a meal, could be anywhere from 1 to 3 'servings' depending on the meal and the vegetable.
