How many milliliters of salt equals a pound?

Answer 1

The millilter (ml) is a unit of volume reserved for liquids or gases. It is not customary to measure solids such as salt in milliliters unless you are a cook in a kitchen, where scales aren't common but measuring spoons and cups are. Granulated solids and powders are a bit easier to measure using liquid measures, but errors can occur because of the differences in how well packed the substances are. A cup of rock salt, for example, will have a different weight than a cup of finely ground table salt. Milliliters into Pounds: Multiply the number of milliliters by the specific gravity of the substance; then divide the product by 453.59 (equivalent in grams of one avoirdupois pound), to obtain the weight in pounds.
