I would say the number depends on how finely the sugar in question is
granulated. Other things being equal, the finer the granules, the more
tighter a given volume would be filled and the more it would weigh, I'd
guess. The degree of hydration of sugar would also influence the weight
of a given volume.

According to the tables in the rfc FAQ, a cup of granulated sugar weighs
190 g, i.e. 6.7 ounces. Obviously, this is just an approximation.
