The formula to calculate the Grams of Sugar (G) from Brix Percentage (B) is:
\[ G = \left(\frac{B}{100}\right) \times V \times 1000 \]
Where:
Brix is a measure of the sugar content in an aqueous solution. One degree Brix is equivalent to 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution. Brix is commonly used in the food and beverage industry to measure the sugar content of fruits, juices, wines, and other products. The higher the Brix value, the higher the sugar content in the solution. Brix measurements are typically taken using a refractometer, which measures the refractive index of the solution and converts it to a Brix value.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the Grams of Sugar (G):
\[ G = \left(\frac{B}{100}\right) \times V \times 1000 = \left(\frac{12}{100}\right) \times 2 \times 1000 = 240 \text{ grams} \]
The Grams of Sugar (G) is 240 grams.
