100 ml is equal to approximately 100 grams
Converting 100 ml to grams results in about 100 grams. This is because, for water and similar liquids with a density of 1 g/ml, the volume in milliliters matches the weight in grams.
Conversion Result and Explanation
If you measure 100 milliliters of water, it weighs roughly 100 grams, considering water’s density. This straightforward conversion applies to liquids with a density close to water, but for other substances, the weight may vary depending on their density.

Conversion Formula
The formula for converting milliliters to grams depends on the substance’s density: grams = milliliters × density. For water, with a density of 1 g/ml, the formula simplifies to grams = ml × 1, making the conversion direct. Example: 50 ml of water equals 50 grams, calculated as 50 × 1.
Conversion Example
- If you have 200 ml of water, then: 200 × 1 = 200 grams. Therefore, 200 ml of water weighs 200 grams.
- For 150 ml of water: 150 × 1 = 150 grams. So, 150 ml converts directly to 150 grams.
- Converting 75 ml: 75 × 1 = 75 grams, indicating 75 ml of water is 75 grams.
- Using 125 ml: 125 × 1 = 125 grams, meaning 125 ml equals 125 grams.
- And for 50 ml: 50 × 1 = 50 grams, so 50 ml is 50 grams.

Conversion Definitions
ml
Milliliter (ml) is a unit of volume measurement used to quantify liquids and small amounts of substances, where 1 ml equals one-thousandth of a liter, often used in cooking, medicine, and science to specify liquid quantities.
grams
Grams (g) are a metric unit of mass or weight used for measuring small quantities of materials, especially solids and powders, with 1 gram being equal to one-thousandth of a kilogram.
Conversion FAQs
Why does 100 ml of water weigh 100 grams?
This is because water’s density is 1 gram per milliliter, meaning each milliliter of water weighs exactly 1 gram, making the volume in ml directly equal to the weight in grams for water.
How does density affect converting ml to grams for other liquids?
Since grams = ml × density, substances with densities higher than 1 g/ml will weigh more than their volume in ml, while less dense liquids weigh less. For example, oil has a density around 0.92 g/ml, so 100 ml of oil weighs 92 grams.
Can I convert ml to grams for solids like flour or sugar?
Yes, but the conversion varies based on the substance’s density. For solids, it’s often better to use specific density values or conversion charts, as volume doesn’t directly translate to weight without considering packing and compaction.
What if I don’t know the density of my liquid?
If the density isn’t known, assuming water’s density (1 g/ml) is a starting point for approximate conversion. For precise measurements, look up the specific density of the substance you are measuring.
Is the conversion different for hot versus cold liquids?
Temperature can slightly change a liquid’s density, but for most practical purposes, the difference is minimal for common liquids like water, and the simple 1 ml = 1 g conversion remains accurate at standard temperatures.
