Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

There is no simple answer.
There are 236.59 mL in a cup. Water weighs 1 g/mL, so for water 236.59 g.

But oils are lighter than water. Addition of salt, sugar, etc to water makes it a little heavier. Powdered solids like salt, sugar, flour are noticable different from the weight of water. You have to find the density of the material, and the answer will be (at least a little) different for every material.
