The conversion between teaspoons (tsp) and milliliters (ml) is based on standard measurements used in cooking and science. Here’s a detailed explanation:
Standard Measurement Conversion:
- 1 teaspoon (tsp) = 5 milliliters (ml)
This conversion is generally accepted in most countries, but the exact volume can vary slightly depending on the country or standard used. For example:
- In the US, 1 teaspoon is exactly 4.92892 ml, but it is typically rounded to 5 ml in most recipes.
- In the UK, 1 teaspoon is defined as 5 ml.
- In the Canada, the metric standard of 5 ml per teaspoon is typically used.
Converting 2 Teaspoons to Milliliters:
Given that 1 teaspoon is approximately 5 ml, for 2 teaspoons, we calculate as follows:
2teaspoons×5ml=10ml
Summary:
- 2 teaspoons = 10 milliliters (ml)
This standard conversion is used commonly in cooking and measurement, though in more precise contexts, you might see slight variations depending on the exact measurement system or country used.
