About Converting Ounces per Liter to Milligrams per Gallon
Ounce per Liter and Milligram per Gallon both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
milligrams per gallon = ounces per liter × 107314.618908
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 ounce per liter equals 28.349523125 base units, and 1 milligram per gallon equals 0.000264172052358 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct ounce per liter-to-milligram per gallon factor of 107314.618908.
Simple example
1 oz/L × 107314.6189 = 107,314.6189 mg/gal
1 ounce per liter = 107,314.6189 milligrams per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 oz/L × 107314.6189 = 107,314,618.9 mg/gal
1,000 ounces per liter = 107,314,618.9 milligrams per gallon.

Frequently asked questions
How many milligrams per gallon are in 1 ounce per liter?
1 ounce per liter equals 107,314.6189 milligrams per gallon, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert ounce per liter to milligram per gallon?
Multiply the ounce per liter value by 107314.6189. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert milligram per gallon back to ounce per liter?
Use the reverse factor: 1 milligram per gallon equals 0.0000093184 ounces per liter. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a ounce per liter?
Ounce per Liter (oz/L) is a unit of density.
What is a milligram per gallon?
Milligram per Gallon (mg/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the ounce per liter to milligram per gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both ounce per liter and milligram per gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 107314.6189 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
