Milliliters to Milligrams Calculator

Milliliters to milligrams conversion is the process of converting volume (mL) to mass (mg) using the density of a substance. Since milliliters measure volume and milligrams measure mass, you need the substance's density to perform the conversion accurately.

Density is required because different substances have different masses per unit volume. For example, 1 mL of water weighs 1000 mg, but 1 mL of oil weighs only 920 mg. The density tells us how much mass is contained in each milliliter of the substance.

This calculator provides accurate results based on the density values you input. The accuracy depends on the precision of the density value used. For common substances, we provide standard density values, but actual density can vary slightly with temperature and purity.

Common densities include: Water (1.0 g/mL), Milk (1.03 g/mL), Oil (0.92 g/mL), Honey (1.42 g/mL), Alcohol (0.79 g/mL), and Mercury (13.6 g/mL). These values are at standard temperature and pressure conditions.

Yes, temperature significantly affects density. Most substances expand when heated and contract when cooled, changing their density. For precise conversions, use density values measured at the same temperature as your substance.
