How many tablespoons is 40 grams of water?
Answer
One US tablespoon (14.8 ml) of water weighs 14.8 grams, from its volume: 1 ml of water weighs about 1 g. In kitchen measures that is just under 2 3/4 tablespoons.
40 grams of water equals 2.71 US tablespoons; the way back, from tablespoons to grams, is the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
1 ml of water weighs about 1 g, so 40 grams of water takes the same room as 40 ml, which is the question the milliliters to teaspoons converter answers by volume.
The same 40 grams of water is 0.17 US cups or 8.12 US teaspoons.
This is the level US tablespoon of 14.8 ml. The metric tablespoon of 15 ml (UK, New Zealand, Canada) is 1.4 % larger and takes 2.67 tablespoons; the Australian tablespoon of 20 ml is 35.3 % larger, so the same weight fills only 2 tablespoons of those.
