How to Convert Ounces to Tablespoons

Since ounces are a unit of mass and tablespoons are a unit of volume, which are different physical quantities, we need to know one more physical quantity of the ingredient or substance to convert between them. In this case, we need to account for the density of the substance whenever we do a conversion.

Therefore, to convert between ounces and tablespoons of an ingredient or substance, we must either multiply or divide by its density, depending on which direction we are performing the conversion.

Dry vs. Liquid Ounces

When converting ounces to tablespoons, it’s important to keep in mind that dry measurements, such as flour or sugar, are measured by weight, and liquid measurements, such as water, are measured by volume.

When measuring a liquid, the measurement is actually the volume of liquid in fluid ounces, while for dry measurements, it’s a weight. This is important to remember since there are different conversion formulas for each.

How to Convert Dry Ounces to Tablespoons

To convert a measurement in ounces to tablespoons, divide the weight multiplied by 1.9172 by the density of the ingredient or material.

You can use this simple formula to convert:

tablespoons = ounces × 1.9172 / density

Thus, the volume in tablespoons is equal to the weight in ounces times 1.9172, divided by the density of the ingredient or material.

How to Convert Fluid Ounces to Tablespoons

The conversion for fluid ounces is more straightforward since both units are volumes.

To convert fluid ounces to tablespoons, multiply the volume by the conversion ratio.

Since one fluid ounce is equal to 2 tablespoons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

tablespoons = fluid ounces × 2

The volume in tablespoons is equal to the fluid ounces multiplied by 2.

When to Convert Ounces to Tablespoons

Ounces and tablespoons are both commonly used to measure cooking ingredients.

For cooking applications, most chefs suggest measuring dry ingredients by weight rather than volume to improve accuracy in the measurements.[1] The density of dry ingredients can vary for a variety of reasons, such as compaction and clumping.

The best way to ensure an accurate conversion is to use a scale. When a scale is not available, a calculator like the one above is a good way to estimate the weight to volume conversion.

For cooking and baking ingredients, you can get more specific results using our butter, flour, and sugar conversion calculators.

Another useful application of weight and volume conversions is chemistry. When performing chemical reactions by combining separate chemicals to produce a new chemical, one must know the exact amount of each chemical to add in order to maximize the yield of the reaction.

It is common to mix powdered chemicals with liquid, or aqueous, chemicals, and this is where it becomes very useful to convert between weights and volumes.[2]
