No, all pasta is different and spaghetti is the only one that can fill a cup to 8 ounces. Others such as rigate and rotini are only 4-5 ounces in a cup.
16 oz. dry rotini pasta should equal roughly 8 cups of cooked pasta (1 cup cooked pasta = 2 oz. dry pasta)
Specify WHICH pasta. All are different weight/volume ratio.
100 grams of angel hair pasta is approximately 3.5 ounces.
There are generally 8 ounces of cavatappi pasta noodles in a cup when measured by volume. Different pasta shapes can vary slightly in their volume-to-weight ratios, so it's best to weigh the pasta for precise measurements.
You need to use a liquid (fluid ounce) measurig cup. See this link for explaination of liquid measuring cup. http://www.realsimple.com/realsimple/content/0,21770,675510,00.html OR http://busycooks.about.com/library/archive/blmeasurelq.htm

Define the pasta -all are different.

It is 16 ounces, because one cup is 8 fluid ounces or just ounces.-Hannah Hannah, you're confusing fluid ounces, which measure volume, with ounces that measure mass... which I believe is the situation the asker is dealing with. In my experience, about 3/4 cup of dry pasta is 2 ounces.It also depends on what type of pasta you are measuring. Two cups of orzo will weight more than two cups of penne.
1 U.S. cup of cooked pasta is equal to 8 U.S. oz of cooked pasta. unless you add spaghetti sauce or Parmesan cheese. :)
Uncooked pasta.
According to the National Pasta Association , 8 ounces of uncooked long pasta, such as spaghetti will yield 4 cups of cooked pasta. Thus, a "serving" of 2 oz. uncooked spaghetti will be the nutritional equivalent of 1 cup of cooked spaghetti.
Two ounces of dry noodles equals different amount cooked depending on the type of pasta. Two ounces dry macaroni equals 1 and one eighth cups cooked. Two ounces dry spaghetti equals one cup cooked. In general, two ounces of any uncooked pasta is one serving.
There are 16 ounces in a lb of dry pasta same with anything
According to the National Pasta Association , 8 ounces of uncooked long pasta, such as spaghetti will yield 4 cups of cooked pasta. Thus, a "serving" of 2 oz. uncooked spaghetti will be the nutritional equivalent of 1 cup of cooked spaghetti. so there you goo on my box it says 2 oz= 3/4 of a cup (2/3)x4= 2.66 oz =1 cup but Im guessing it depends on the type of pasta
Again, it depends on six ounces of what. Six ounces of pasta will not be the same volume as six ounces of water. Maybe you mean FLUID OUNCES, which is a measure of water and similar liquids. A FLUID OUNCE measures volume (as well as weight) and is not the same as an ounce. Six fluid ounces will equal 3/4 (or 0.75 - learn metric already) cups.
The conversion rate for uncooked pasta to cups can vary depending on the shape and size of the pasta. On average, 500 grams of uncooked pasta is roughly equivalent to about 4 cups of uncooked pasta. It's important to note that this is an approximate conversion, and the exact measurement may vary slightly.
