Milligrams versus milliliters

One milliliter of water weighs one gram. There are 1000 milligrams in one gram.

One milliliter of other substances will weigh more or less, depending upon their densities. A millilter of gasoline, for example, weighs less, and a milliliter of Mercury weighs more -- WAY more. (No pun intended.)

Milligram is a unit of mass; milliliter is a unit of volume. You can't directly convert the two. If you know the density of a substance, you can say, for example, "1 milliliter of water has a mass of 1 gram (1000 milligrams)", or "1 milliliter of lead has a mass of about 11 gram".

It depends on the substance. For water, 1 milliliter is equal to 1,000 milligrams. However, for other substances, the conversion will be different based on the density of the material.
