I was searching the net for this precise answer - I found your question before I found the answer! Anyway, if you're still looking for an answer I found another website that said a whole nutmeg yield 2 to 3 teaspoons of ground nutmeg.
Ground ginger is made from dried ginger root that has been ground into a fine powder, while ginger powder is a more refined version of ground ginger that has been processed further to create a smoother texture. Both can be used in cooking and baking, but ginger powder is often preferred for its more concentrated flavor and smoother consistency.
No. Crushed ginger is 'wet'. Ground Ginger is a powder. They are not the same thing. You can substitute but would need to change quantities and the taste would be different.
If your recipe asks for Ginger root, it is the actual root you find in the produce section, that is is asking you to use. in some recipes it is for the flavor, but often ginger has a medicinal characteristic. If you have powder, that is the dried and ground form of the root, and it will not be the same measurement. It also depends on what you are making- if you can substitute the powder for the root.
probably. my guess is that ginger root is the whole thing, and ground ginger would be chopped up/finely ground ginger root.
No. Ground ginger is simply ginger, dried and ground, as the name suggests. Crystallized ginger is ginger that has been preserved through cooking and blending with syrup and sugar.
There are about 0.26 teaspoons of ginger powder in one gram.

Try cinnamon or curry powder. Both are delicious.
A one inch piece of fresh, grated ginger (generally yielding 1 tablespoon) equals approximately 1/8 teaspoon ground (dried) ginger. Source: http://www.evitamins.com/healthnotes.asp?ContentID=3602003
No, cayenne and chili powder are not the same. Cayenne is a specific type of chili pepper that is ground into a powder, while chili powder is a blend of various spices, including ground chili peppers.
Yes. Ginger and ginger powder is acceptable.
One teaspoon of ginger powder weighs approximately 2 grams. Therefore, 4 grams of ginger powder would be equivalent to 2 teaspoons. This conversion is based on the average weight of ginger powder, which may vary slightly depending on the density of the powder.
