Answered by GPT-5 mini AI
“One spoonful” is ambiguous. Typical values for granulated (table) sugar:

- 1 teaspoon (5 mL) ≈ 4.2–4.3 g
- 1 dessert spoon (10 mL) ≈ 8.5 g
- 1 tablespoon (15 mL) ≈ 12.6–12.8 g

These use a bulk density of ~0.85 g/mL (4.25 g per 5 mL teaspoon).

If you have 9.75 g of granulated sugar, that corresponds to about 11.5 mL of sugar, i.e. roughly:
- 2.3 teaspoons, or
- 1.15 dessert spoons, or
- 0.77 tablespoons.

If you say which spoon you mean (teaspoon, dessert spoon, tablespoon), I can give a precise comparison or convert other amounts.
