Convert grams of salt to milliliters. Table salt density is 1.22 g/ml, so 100g salt = 82ml. Free online salt converter.
Table salt is one of the denser kitchen ingredients, with a density of about 1.22 g/ml. This means 100 grams of salt packs into just 82 ml — much less volume than the same weight of flour or sugar.
Salt density varies by type: fine table salt is denser than kosher salt or sea salt flakes. When a recipe calls for salt in grams, converting to volume requires knowing which type you're using. Try our gram to ml converter for accurate results.
Use the formula: ml = grams ÷ 1.22. Fine table salt has a density of approximately 1.22 g/ml.
Volume [ml] = Mass [g] ÷ 1.22 [g/ml] Mass [g] = Volume [ml] × 1.22 [g/ml] Quick reference table for converting salt between grams and milliliters (density: 1.22 g/ml).

Grams (g) measure <strong>weight</strong>. Milliliters (ml) measure <strong>volume</strong>. To convert between them, you need the <strong>density</strong> of the substance. This converter does it instantly.
Select from 17 common cooking and baking ingredients - or enter a custom density value for any substance.
Pick the weight unit (grams, kg, oz) and volume unit (ml, liters, cups) you need for the conversion.
Enter a value in either field and the calculator instantly converts it. Works both ways - gram to ml or ml to grams.
100 grams of table salt is approximately 82 ml. Salt is denser than water (1.22 g/ml), so it takes up less volume per gram.
No. Kosher salt has larger, flakier crystals and a lower density (about 0.58 g/ml for Diamond Crystal). The same weight of kosher salt fills roughly twice the volume of table salt.
5 grams of fine table salt is approximately 1 teaspoon (about 4.1 ml). This can vary slightly depending on how finely ground the salt is.
Salt crystals are solid mineral (sodium chloride) packed tightly together. Flour is made of light, porous particles with lots of air between them. That's why salt has twice the density of flour.
