Why do grams change with ingredient?

Grams measure mass while cups/tbsp/tsp measure volume. Different ingredients have different densities, so volume to weight conversion depends on the ingredient.

Are these measurements exact?

We use commonly accepted household densities for cooking and baking. For professional recipes, always refer to brand-specific or method-specific weight charts.
