To change mL into grams, you need to include the substance’s density in your calculations. Formula: grams = mL × density. First, find the density of the substance (usually in g/mL). For example, the density of water is 1 g/mL, so 50 mL of water equals 50 grams. This approach varies for other substances, so always check the density.
