1 teaspoon of chocolate chips in grams
0.0208 cups × 170 g per cup = 3.5 g
A cup of chocolate chips weighs 170 g, so 1 teaspoon of it comes to 3.5 g. That figure is particular to chocolate chips: a cup is a volume and a gram is a mass, and the only thing connecting them is how heavy the ingredient is for its bulk. For comparison, a cup of all-purpose flour is 120 g and a cup of granulated white sugar is 198 g. The source line is "1 cup = 170 g", from King Arthur Baking.
