Is anyone good at math? SN density to volume

[Sixfeetunder]

I'm terrible at math. Also, I tried weighing the SN, but the number on the balance was jumping all over the place, so I don't trust the results.

What I do know is the density of SN is 2.17 g/cm3. Does anyone know how many teaspoons 5 grams would be? I know 5 grams isn't sufficient, but people generally choose a dosage divisible by 5 (such as 10 grams or 15 grams), so people could just multiply by 2, 3 or whatever else to get their desired dose.

Thank you in advance to whoever can solve this problem.

1ml=1cm3

At a density of 2.17g/ml volume of 5g of SN would be 2.3ml

1 US teaspoon=4.92892ml

5g SN=.46748 tsp

I could be completely wrong. You might want to double check.

2.17 g/cm3 is relative density and you need bulk density for this one. Google says it's 1.2 g/cm3 so 6 grams per teaspoon, though it probably differs a bit depending on the manufacturer

Why is everyone talking about spoons to measure a weight? You can buy a weightscale that some people use for softdrugs, from websites or apps like Aliexpress and Wish. (or just buy local or else where)

So 3 teaspoons would be enough? Would come to about 18g which is over the recommended amount but more should make sure the jobs done?

Ugh. Same. I have a scale but it isn't calibrated. I need a 100g weight to calibrate and idk where to buy one (other than internet), in stores.

Thanks! Calculations are right.

As I mentioned in my original post, my scale was bouncing all over the place. I tried multiple times, even tried calibrating it, and still got different readings, so I don't trust it. I also figured others might be in the same position, so being able to measure it with teaspoons might work better for some people.

When I looked it up, it was saying 2.17 g/cm3. Maybe I could be wrong. If I find out for certain in my chemistry class, I'll let you all know.
