The weight varies depending on the ingredient. For example, 1/4 cup of uncooked rice is about 1.8 oz, while 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs is only 0.5 oz. Refer to the list above for specific dry ingredient conversions.
Water follows the standard liquid measurement. 1/4 cup of water = 2 fluid ounces (fl oz).
Cream cheese is a dense ingredient. 1/4 cup of cream cheese = 2 oz (57g).
Since 0.25 cup is the same as 1/4 cup, 0.25 cup = 2 fluid ounces (fl oz) for liquids and varies for dry ingredients.
