How many drops are in a fluid ounce?

It depends on the fluid and its viscosity. The number ranges from 500 - 600 for water but there is a wide range of numbers possible:. Water is a relatively viscous fluid (i.e. a thick and sticky fluid) compared to light spirits so three will be fewer drops of water in a fluid ounce than if the fluid was a spirit. Compare water with a thick heavy oil. A droplet of oil will tend to be much larger than a water droplet so the number of drops may be far fewer. 600 drops will be present in one ounce.


Is one drop of water a fluid ounce?

No, one drop of water is not equal to a fluid ounce. A fluid ounce is a unit of measurement used to measure volume, while a drop is a very small unit of volume that can vary depending on the liquid and dropper size. It typically takes many drops to add up to a fluid ounce.


How many drops equal one liquid pound?

That depends on what substance you're dropping. Drops of oil weigh less than drops of water, so it takes more of them to make a pound. Drops of mercury or melted lead are heavier than drops of water, so it takes fewer of them to make a pound.


Converting ounces to fluid ounces?

Dry or avoirdupois ounces measure weight while fluid ounces measure volume. The problem is that a fluid ounce may have different weights depending what it is. Water is heavier than flour for example. As a rule of thumb, a fl.oz. of water weighs about an ounce, but not exactly.


Is a fluid ounce the same as an ounce?

No. A fluid ounce is a measure of volume, related to liquids and fluids. An ounce is a unit of weight or mass. A glass of water can have both - the glass and water together have a particular weight or mass but the water inside the glass has volume and is measured in fluid ounces.

Does 1oz water equals 1oz lb in weight?

No, 1 fluid ounce of water does not weigh the same as 1 dry ounce. Water has a density of approximately 1 gram per milliliter, so 1 fluid ounce of water weighs about 1 ounce. Conversely, 1 dry ounce is a measure of weight, equal to 28.35 grams.

How many teaspoons is 6 ounces?

36 A fluid ounce is 2 tablespoons, or 6 teaspoons. Note: do not confuse fluid ounces with avoirdupois ounces(weight). 1 imperial fluid ounce equals the volume of 1 ounce (Av.D.) of water at 62 degrees Fahrenheit. 1 US fluid ounce equals 1/128 gallon [US]. or ~1.04 imperial fluid ounces.


How many fl oz equals a ton?

The answer to this cannot be determined without knowing what is being measured or weighed. For example, a fluid ounce of water will weigh much less than a fluid ounce of mercury.

Is a fluid ounce bigger than an ounce?

i don't think so. A fluid ounce represents the weight of an ounce of distilled water.


How much does 1 fluid ounce of water weigh in grams?

Weight of water: 1 imperial fluid ounce = 28.41 grams 1 US fluid ounce = 29.57 grams


What is bigger ounces or fluid?

1 fluid ounce of water weighs 1 ounce; so they are the same weight if you are talking about water. However, if you are measuring a liquid that has a density greater than that of water, then 1 fluid ounce of that liquid would weigh more than 1 ounce.


How many ounces in a fluid ounce?

If you're trying to ask what the weight of a fluid ounce of something is, it depends on the density of the something in question. For water, 1 fluid ounce weighs pretty close to 1 ounce. A fluid ounce of mercury weighs nearly a pound.
