How many calories do 9 teaspoons of sugar equal?

There is no such thing as a LIQUID GRAM! Liquid can be either Weighed (grams) or it can occupy a Volume (milliliters or Cubic Centimetres) 1ml(millilitre) WATER weighs exactly 1gram 1cubic centimeter(cc) is the same VOLUME as 1millilitre(1cc equals 1ml) The terms milliliter and Litre should strictly speaking, be only used when talking about LIQUIDS. The term cc.(cubic centimeter) should only be used when referring to SOLIDS such as sugar, flour, etc. It is ONLY with water that it's volume is 1cc and it's weight is 1ml. With solids their Weight per cc varies according to their Density. When cooking you should always WEIGH solids such as flour ,sugar, butter. A good cookery book will list the Weights of various Volumes of 'solid' ingredients. E.G. 1cup Rolled Oatmeal weighs 85 gram OR 3 ounce
