How many grams is 1/3 teaspoon of olive oil?
Answer
One US teaspoon (4.93 ml) of olive oil weighs 4.5 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171413 “Oil, olive, salad or cooking”, portion “1 cup” = 216 grams, and 1 US cup = 48 US teaspoons.
1/3 teaspoon of olive oil equals 1.5 grams; the way back, from grams to teaspoons, is the Grams to Teaspoons converter.
This is the level US teaspoon of 4.93 ml. A recipe written for the metric teaspoon of 5 ml means 1.4 % more: 1.52 grams.
How 1/3 teaspoon of olive oil was converted to grams
One US teaspoon of olive oil weighs 4.5 grams (four point five), so multiply 1/3 by 4.5.
1/3 × 4.5 g
=1.5 grams
(one point five grams)
The weight of the teaspoon comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171413 “Oil, olive, salad or cooking”, portion “1 cup” = 216 grams, and 1 US cup = 48 US teaspoons. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a teaspoon weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.

The other way round: how many teaspoons a weight fills
This page starts from teaspoons and answers in grams. The opposite question — how many teaspoons a weight from a recipe fills — is what the grams to teaspoons converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: 100 grams of olive oil is 22.2 teaspoons there.
