14 grams is a weight measure. Ounces could be ounces of volume, like 1 cup, or a tablespoon, or ounces could be a weight measure. For example, there are 16 ounces of weight in a pound of weight.

A pound contains 453.59 grams of weight. So 14 grams is 14 divided by 453.59 equals 0.0309 pounds. 0.0309 times 16 ounces of weight per pound equals 0.494 ounces of weight. So 14 grams is about 1/2 ounce of weight.

However, measuring 1/2 ounce volume of, say, flour, is certainly not 1/2 ounce of weight. In fact, I weighed out 16 ounces volume of flour in a cup (volume) of flour and weighed it. It weighed 4.9 ounces of weight, after subtracting the weight of the measuring cup. A cup (volume) of water weighed 7.5 ounces after subtracting the weight of the measuring cup. So, the same volume of two different substances does not weigh the same. Similarly, the same weight of two different substances will not likely fill the same volume. A pound of lead will occupy about 1/17th the the volume of pound of flour or about 1/11th the volume of a pound of water. Sadly, like the word love, the word ounce has different meanings.

Here is a formula for said question -
