How would I calculate amount by weight, of a powder in a liquid
I need to add .2% of a color powder to an amount of liquid.
How would I calculate the amount, in grams, of the color powder that would be required to go into 8oz of a liquid.
Thank you. -

convert ounces to grams then multiply by 0.002

You need to know the specific gravity/density of the liquid to convert volume in ounces to grams and use above math.

Great.
The liquid is milk
I found a website that lists the weight of 8oz of milk as 245g.
In searching, I learned that the specific density of milk changes with temp.
So I assume I could actually just weigh the 8oz of milk and multiply that by .002…Thank you both.

Yes, measure out 8oz of milk and weigh it.
