- Sugar Cups to GramsWhite granulated sugar sits near 200 g per US cup. It packs less drama than flour. Caster/superfine is similar; powdered sugar with cornstarch is closer to 120 g and is a different page in spirit.
- Cocoa Powder Cups to GramsUnsweetened cocoa powder is fluffy. A US cup is about 85 g sifted/spooned. Dutch-process vs natural does not change the gram target as much as how hard you tap the cup.
- Flour Cups to GramsA US cup of spooned all-purpose flour is about 120 g. Scoop-and-level from the bag can hit 140 g and dry out a cake. Weigh if the crumb matters. Bread flour is denser; cake flour is lighter.
- Oats Cups to GramsOld-fashioned rolled oats are about 90 g per US cup. Quick oats similar. Steel-cut are denser (~160 g). Overnight-oat blogs that say “1 cup” usually mean rolled.
- Dry Rice Cups to CookedWhite long-grain usually triples: 1 dry cup → about 3 cooked. Brown rice is closer to 2–2½. Risotto soaks differently. This is a pot estimate, not a lab yield.
- Atomic Mass Units to GramsDaltons (u) are how chemists weigh atoms. Carbon-12 is defined as 12 u. The gram is 6.022 × 10²³ of those, which is why a mole of carbon is 12 g. This page is for lab sheets, not grocery bags.

A 5K is 5,000 meters, not 5 kilometers on the nose if your watch is sloppy. Divide meters by 1,000. Track races, building plans, and “how far was that hike” all live in this split.
Feet to Meters
Unit Converters
US height, ceiling height, and lumber still arrive in feet. Meter plans do not. One foot is exactly 0.3048 m — not “about a third.” Use this when a listing says 10 ft ceilings and the architect works in meters.
Inches to Centimeters
Unit Converters
Monitor diagonals, waist measurements, and photo prints still come in inches. Clothing charts in Europe come in cm. Multiply inches by 2.54. That factor is exact, not a kitchen guess.
