A dose of liquid medicine is sometimes an ounce.
It depends on what the ounce is of. What food or drink, for example.
Two tablespoons of water
The abbreviation for ounce is oz. An example would be: 8 ozs. (ounces) of sour cream
Gramme (gram), pound, ounce, ton.
No, 1 avoirdupois ounce ( a regular ounce in the U.S.) = 28.3495 grams. So 56 grams is approximately 2 ounces.1 troy ounce (used for measuring mass of gold, for example) = 31.1035 grams.
A troy ounce is about 31 grams and the US standard ounce (avoirdupois) is about 28 grams. When buying coins, or gold or silver, you get more by getting a troy ounce. The price of gold and silver is in troy ounces. So, for example, if gold is $1400 an ounce, that price is for a troy ounce. A 28 gram ounce of gold is not worth $1400.
Actually that would drams to the ounce. 16 drams to 1 ounce. That's correct for weight (av.), I believe. However, for a fluid dram, the number is 8 drams to the ounce. For example, specialtybottle.com advertises a vial at "10 dram (1.25oz) Vial w/ cork" . Perverse isn't it?
1/16 of a pound. ~ The fluid ounce of WHAT liquid. Each has their own property and weight. And ounce of whipped cream versus an ounce of liquid mercury is far from each other (example only). Your mass and weight are so far from each other. More information is needed. ~
Half of a half is one quarter. Of anything.
Gold is at at all-time high price, breaking the $1600 per ounce barrier in 2013. In 2008, for example, the price of gold was around $800 per ounce, and in 2003 was $400 per ounce.
Dry or avoirdupois ounces measure weight while fluid ounces measure volume. The problem is that a fluid ounce may have different weights depending what it is. Water is heavier than flour for example. As a rule of thumb, a fl.oz. of water weighs about an ounce, but not exactly.
The answer to this cannot be determined without knowing what is being measured or weighed. For example, a fluid ounce of water will weigh much less than a fluid ounce of mercury.
