How many kilograms are in one cup?

Answer 1

There can be no equivalence.

A kilogram is a measure of mass. A cup is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid. The mass of the same volume of two substances will depend on their densities: for example, a cup of water and a cup of molasses will have different masses.

Answer 2

This depends entirely on the density of the material you are converting.

Kilograms are a unit of mass, and cups are a unit of volume. Without knowing what you are measuring (feathers, lead, water, flour, sugar, salt, Mercury, gold, saltwater, carrots, etc.) and how dense it is (what mass fills a particular volume), we have no way to determine this conversion.

Now, if you are looking at water, 1 kg = 1000 g = 1000 mL = 1 L.

1L is equivalent to 4.23 US cups.

Therefore 1kg of water will fill 4.23 cups. Most cooking liquids will be close to this volume (4 and 1/4 cups) for 1kg.

If you are working with a solid, this conversion will NOT be accurate.

Answer 3

Sorry, this cannot be answered without more detail. Kilograms are a measure of mass (think weight), and cups are a measure of volume. Without further variables, no one can answer it.

That being said, for reference:

The standard Daisy zinc coated .177 BB is sold in a half pint carton. This weighs 3 pounds, which means a cup of these BBs would weigh 6 pounds or 2.72155 kilograms.

This should show you what is missing from your equation.

Answer 4

One Kg of all purpose flour is about 8 cups. But it varies with different types of flours and or other dry ingredients.

Answer 5

Cups is a measure of volume, Kilograms are a measure of mass. The density of the substance would be needed

Answer 6

A cup is a measurement of volume, and kilogram is a measurement of weight. It cannot be answered without the density of the item being measured

Answer 7

There are 4.4 cups of water in 1 kg.

Answer 8

a cup of water

0.25 kg
