* Grams measure mass: Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
* Milliliters measure volume: Volume is the amount of space an object occupies.
Think of it like this:
* You could have 10 grams of feathers and 10 grams of lead. They have the same mass.
* However, the feathers would take up much more space (volume) than the lead because they are less dense.
To convert between grams and milliliters, you need to know the density of the substance:
* Density = Mass / Volume
Example:
* The density of water is 1 gram per milliliter.
* So, 10 grams of water would equal 10 milliliters of water.
To convert grams to milliliters, you need to follow these steps:
1. Find the density of the substance you are working with. You can look this up online or in a reference book.
2. Divide the mass (in grams) by the density (in grams per milliliter). This will give you the volume (in milliliters).
