5g. There are 1000 mg in one g.
5 g
1 mg = (1/1000) g 1 g = 1000 mg So 12 mg = (12/1000) g Obviously 1 g = 1000 mg which is much greater than 12 mg

370 mg = .370 g, so 3.7 g is greater.

mg stands for milligram or 1/1000 of a gram. So 43 mg is 43/1000 of a gram or 0.043 g. Comparing 0.043 g to 5 g, it's clear that 5 g is greater.
1 mg = 1/1000 g Therefore 210 mg = 210/1000 g = 0.210 g. 0.210 g <2g, therefore 2g is the greater mass.
kg is the greater volume.
1 g = 1,000 mg5 g = (5 x 1,000) = 5,000 mg. This appears to be somewhat larger than 43 mg.
The milli- prefix means one thousandth (1/1000), thus: 1000 mg = 1000 × 1/1000 g = 1 g By converting to the same units a comparison can be made: 5g = 5 × 1000 mg = 5000 mg > 43 mg Thus 5 g is greater than 43 mg.
