The number of milliliters in a substance depends on its density. If we assume the substance is water (which has a density of 1 gram per milliliter), then 80 grams would be equivalent to 80 milliliters. However, if the substance is different, you would need to know its density to convert grams to milliliters accurately.

A gram 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 grams? Next consider a millilitre of water. How many grams?

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.
