How many ml in 340 grams? - Answers

None.A gram is a measure of mass. A millilitre is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.If you are not convinced, consider a millilitre of air. How many grams? Next consider a millilitre of Mercury. How many grams?The masses of equal volumes of the two substances will clearly be very different. So there is no direct conversion between mass and volume: you need to know the density of the substance to enable you to carry out the conversion.Some people still believe that there is a conversion in relation to pure water but that is only approximately true. Until 1964 (50 year ago!) a litre was defined as the volume of one kilogram of pure water at 4 degrees Celsius and at a pressure of 760 millimetres of mercury. With that definition a conversion would have been possible - but only for pure water and only under those conditions. In any case that definition of a litre was abandoned in favour of 1 litre =1000 cubic centimetres.So now the maximum density of pure water, at 4 deg C and 760 mm of mercury is 0.999 972 g/cc
