Mg Per ML Formula:
From: | To: |
The Mg Per ML calculation converts concentration in millimolar (mM) to milligrams per milliliter (mg/mL) using the molecular weight of the substance. This is particularly useful in chemistry and biochemistry for preparing solutions with specific concentrations.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula accounts for the conversion between molar concentration and mass concentration, considering the molecular weight of the substance.
Details: Accurate conversion between molarity and mass concentration is essential for preparing precise solutions in laboratory settings, pharmaceutical formulations, and research experiments.
Tips: Enter concentration in mM and molecular weight in g/mol. Both values must be positive numbers.
Q1: Why divide by 1000 in the formula?
A: We divide by 1000 to convert from grams to milligrams (1g = 1000mg) and maintain consistent units in mg/mL.
Q2: Can this calculator be used for any substance?
A: Yes, as long as you know the molecular weight of the substance and its concentration in mM.
Q3: What's the difference between mM and mg/mL?
A: mM measures molar concentration (moles per liter), while mg/mL measures mass concentration (mass per volume).
Q4: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically precise when correct molecular weight and concentration values are provided.
Q5: Can I use this for concentration conversions in both directions?
A: This calculator specifically converts from mM to mg/mL. For reverse conversion, you would need to rearrange the formula.
