Milligrams-milliliters?

Question

Can anyone please tell me how many milligrams of citrus juice is in 1 milliliter? like convert milligrams to milliliters? Like how will I get 6000mg to ml?

Answer 1

For water 1 milliliter =1 g = 1000milligrams

6000mg = 6 milliliter

Answer 2

Here's three ways:

1. If you need a pretty exact answer, carefully weigh a clean, empty 100ml flask. Pour exactly 100ml of citrus juice into the flask, reweigh the flask plus juice. The difference between the two weights (I'll call it W mg) is the mass of 100ml of the citrus juice. The number of ml in 6000mg will be

       6000 x 100/W

2. If you only need a rough answer, citrus juice is a little more dense than water, so each ml will weigh a bit more than 1g. Therefore, 6000mg (i.e. 6g) will take up a bit less than 6ml.

3. If you know the density of the citrus juice, simply divide 6000 by this density (or divide 6 by the density, depending on what units you express the density in).

Answer 3

Metric conversions are very simple and elegant, even when converting unlike measurements.

Remember that the prefix milli means 1/1000

1 litre of water = 1000 ml = 1 kg = 1000 g

6000 mg = 6 g = .006 kg = .006 litre = 6 ml

The above is only exact for water, but if you know the precise density of the citrus juice, it's possible to arrive at an exact answer by simply converting the 6 ml. Most citrus juice would have a very similar density to water, so 6 ml will be very close.

Answer 4

u need the density of citrus juice, so it lacks info.

Answer 5

Can't be done, water is the only unit that can be converted from volume to weight.

Answer 6

the density of citrus juice (I assume you mean humble lemon juice) is close to 1g/ml which is the value for water.  Therefore there will be 1000 mg of juice in 1 ml.  In general the conversion from mg to ml demands that the you know the specific gravity (density) of the substance for which you wish to do the conversion.
