Well, that depends entirely upon what you are measuring. Grams is a unit of mass and a teaspoon is a unit of volume. For instance: If you fill a teaspoon with water it's weight (mass x gravity) is very small. However, if you fill that same teaspoon with lead it would be much heavier. Seeing that gravity doesn't change, nor does the teaspoon...the only thing that changes is the mass (number of grams). So there isn't a set number of grams per teaspoon. It depends upon what you are measuring. This applies no mater how many Grams or teaspoons you are trying to convert.

ANSWER

It depends of the density of foodstuff. For example

1/8 US teaspoon of lemon acid = 0.856 g or 856 mg

1/8 US teaspoon of salt = 0.780 g or 780 mg

1/8 US teaspoon of soda = 0.959 g or 959 mg and so on.

1/2 teaspoon = 2.46 mL


How many milligrams in 1 teaspoon sugar?

Approximately 5,000 milligrams.


How many teaspoons are in one milliliter?

It depends The answer is "it depends." If we don't know what the teaspoon is holding, then we can't answer the question. That's because a milligram is a unit of WEIGHT, whereas a teaspoon is a unit of volume. So what? you ask. Well, a teaspoon of black pepper will not weigh the same as a teaspoon of iron filings, which will have a different weight than a teaspoon of sugar, which will have a different weight than a teaspoon of tungsten filings or liquid Mercury. Do not confuse WEIGHT with VOLUME. For example, a level teaspoon of table salt has (weighs) about 2300 milligrams. FYI, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) is 2400 milligrams. And average consumption in the USA is 3500 milligrams. Drop the dill pickle and back away! There are 10 milligrams in one teaspoon. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The teaspoon as a volume unit has 5 mL. Mass = volume x density; density is a specific characteristic of any material. So the mass contained in a teaspoon depends on the density.


How many milligrams in 32 kg?

A mass of 32 grams is almost identically equal to 32 grams. So close that upon inspection ...even one that is decidedly more than cursory ... one would be hard-pressed to spot the difference.
