1 mg (milligram) is a thousandth of a gram. A gram is a measure of weight (or technically, of mass) - for example, sugar generally comes in bags of 1 kilogram (1,000 grams).

1 ml (millilitre) is a thousandth of a litre. A litre is a measure of volume - for example, Orange Juice is often packaged in 1 litre boxes.

So it's not possible to convert ml to mg directly - they are measurements of different things.

However ... a gram was originally defined (in 1795) as the weight of one cubic centimetre of water. 1 cubic centimetre is 1 millilitre.

Therefore, 0.2 ml of water is approximately 0.2 grams, which is 200 mg.
