There can be no equivalence.

A milligram is a measure of mass. A millilitre is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.

If you are not convinced, consider a millilitre of air. How many milligrams? Next consider a millilitre of water. How many milligrams?

The masses of equal volumes of the two substances will clearly be very different. So there is no direct conversion between mass and volume: you need to know the density of the substance to enable you to carry out the conversion.

Some people still believe that there is a conversion in relation to pure water but that is only approximately true. Until 1964 (nearly 50 year ago!) a litre was defined as the volume of one kilogram of pure water at 4 degrees Celsius and at a pressure of 760 millimetres of Mercury. With that definition a conversion would have been possible - but only for pure water and only under those conditions. In any case that definition of a litre was abandoned in favour of 1 litre =1000 cubic centimetres.

In fact the density of pure water, at 4 deg C is 999.9720 kg/metre3 which is its maximum value at normal atmospheric pressure (760 mm of mercury).

How do you convert 262 mg to ml?

Oh, converting milligrams to milliliters is like painting a happy little tree. You see, it depends on the density of the substance you're working with. If it's water, for example, you can usually assume that 1 milligram is equal to 1 milliliter. So, 262 mg would be approximately 262 ml if it's water. Just remember, each substance has its own density, so it's always good to check to make sure you're accurate.
