Cups measure volume, so the gram weight is specific to the ingredient — 1½ cups of sugar is 300 g, while the same 1½ cups of flour is 180 g. Scoop-and-level from the bag can pack flour up to 20% denser than spooning it in loosely, so a kitchen scale gives the most consistent result for anything that needs to be precise.
