That depends on what liquid you're talking about. Millilitres are a measure of volume, so to calculate the weight of 1ml you need to know the density of the liquid. Density is grams per millilitre, so if a liquid has a density of 1.0g/ml, 1ml would weigh 1g. For a liquid with a density of 1.5g/ml 1ml would weigh 1.5g.
