There is no equivalence.
A milligram is a measure of mass. A cubic centimetre 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 1 cc of air. How many milligrams? Next consider a cc of lead. 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.

depends on what you are weighing. 5 mg of waters is the same volume as 5 mg of mercury.
15. Theer are 1000 mg per gram
1 mg equals how many grams?
1000 mcg equals 1 mg.
To convert cubic centimeters (cc) to milligrams (mg), you need to know the density of the substance in question, as mg is a measure of mass while cc is a measure of volume. For water, 1 cc is approximately equal to 1000 mg, so 0.15 cc of water would be about 150 mg. However, for other substances, the conversion will vary based on their density.
