How many grams is 10 teaspoons?

Answer

There is no single number — it depends on the ingredient. 10 US teaspoons weighs
from 16.9 grams (rolled oats) to 70.6 grams (honey)

A teaspoon measures volume, and every ingredient packs a different weight into it, so 10 teaspoons has no single weight. The table gives all 23 ingredients, with the packed, sifted and cooked states on rows of their own, each from the USDA FoodData Central weight of one US cup ÷ 48 — one US teaspoon (4.93 ml) is 1/48 of a US cup — or of one US teaspoon itself for baking powder, baking soda, active dry yeast and ground cinnamon; water is counted from its volume.

How 10 teaspoons of granulated sugar was converted to grams

grams = teaspoons × grams in one US teaspoon

One US teaspoon of granulated sugar weighs 4.17 grams (four point one seven), so multiply 10 by (200 ÷ 48).

10 × (200 ÷ 48) g

≈

41.7 grams

(forty-one point seven grams)

The weight of the teaspoon comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169655 “Sugars, granulated”, portion “1 cup” = 200 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 granulated sugar is 24 teaspoons there.
