How to convert milligrams to liters
Weight and volume are linked by density. Water weighs 1 gram per millilitre, so for water L = mg ÷ 10,00,000 (water). For other substances, pick one above.
L = mg ÷ 10,00,000 (water)
500 mg of water = 0.0005 L
Other substances
1 mg is milk 9.709 × 10⁻⁷ L, cooking oil 0.000001087 L, ghee (melted) 0.000001099 L, honey 7.042 × 10⁻⁷ L. Lighter substances such as oil take up more volume for the same weight.
