10 mg vial + 1.5 mL bacteriostatic water
A 10 mg vial reconstituted with 1.5 mL comes to 6.667 mg/mL. Every unit on a U-100 insulin syringe then carries 66.67 mcg, so 500 mcg is 7.5 units (0.075 mL) and the vial holds 20 draws of that size.

Same vial, other volumes
The mass does not move. Only the concentration and the unit count do.

Same concentration, different vial
These pairs also come to 6.667 mg/mL, so their unit counts match this page exactly; only the number of draws per vial differs: 20 mg + 3 mL.

10 mg + 1.5 mL questions
What concentration is 10 mg in 1.5 mL?
10 mg divided by 1.5 mL is 6.667 mg/mL, which is 6,667 mcg/mL. On a U-100 syringe each unit holds 0.01 mL, so one unit carries 66.67 mcg.
How many units is 500 mcg from a 10 mg vial with 1.5 mL?
500 mcg divided by 6,667 mcg/mL is 0.075 mL, which is 7.5 units on a U-100 syringe and 3 units on a U-40 syringe. The vial holds 20 draws of that size.
What if I add 2 mL instead of 1.5 mL to the 10 mg vial?
The mass stays 10 mg. With 2 mL the concentration is 5 mg/mL instead of 6.667 mg/mL, so the same amount per draw needs more units: 500 mcg becomes 10 units instead of 7.5.
Does a 10 mg vial hold 1.5 mL?
Usually. Most lyophilized peptide vials are 2 mL or 3 mL glass, and 1.5 mL fits with room to swirl. Check the vial if it is an unusually small format.
