Where this number comes from

USDA FoodData Central lists 1 cup, fluid (yields 2 cups whipped) of “Cream, fluid, heavy whipping” at 238 g, and 1 cup, whipped at 120 g (FDC ID 170859, SR Legacy).

Everything else is worked out from that figure: spoons from 1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons, and ounces and pounds from their exact definitions (1 oz = 28.349523125 g, 1 lb = 453.59237 g, NIST).
