Cubic Centimeter to Teaspoon Conversion Formula

To convert from Cubic Centimeter (cm³) to Teaspoon (tsp), use the following formula:

$\textbf{ Teaspoon } (tsp)$

$= \frac{1}{1000} \times 33.8140226 \times 6\times \textbf{ Cubic Centimeter } (cm^{3})$

$= 0.2028841356\times \textbf{ Cubic Centimeter } (cm^{3})$

With $33.8140226$ is the ratio between the base units Fluid Ounce (fl-oz) and Liter (l).

Example

Let's convert 5 Cubic Centimeter (cm³) to Teaspoon (tsp).

Using the formula:

$5 \times 0.2028841356 = 1.014420678$

Therefore, 5 Cubic Centimeter (cm³) is equal to $1.014420678$ Teaspoon (tsp).

What Is a Cubic Centimeter (cm³)?

A cubic centimeter (cm³) is a fundamental unit of volume in the metric system.

It is equal to one-thousandth of a liter. The plural form is cubic centimeters.

How Do Cubic Centimeters (cm³) Relate to Milliliters (mL)?

A cubic centimeter is exactly equal to one milliliter (1 cm³ = 1 mL).

Because they are identical, converting between cm³ and mL is a simple one-to-one conversion.

This crucial equivalence is widely used in science, particularly in chemistry and medicine, as well as in everyday tasks like cooking.

What Does "CC" Mean in Medicine and Engines?

The abbreviation "cc" is a common substitute for cubic centimeters, especially in the medical and automotive fields.

In Medicine: A cc is used to measure dosages of liquid medicine for injections. For example, a syringe labeled "10cc" can hold 10 cubic centimeters (or 10 mL) of fluid.
In Automotive: In the car world, cc refers to an engine's displacement—the total volume of all its cylinders. A "1500cc engine" has cylinders that can displace 1500 cubic centimeters of air and fuel.

How Big Is a Cubic Centimeter? A Simple Visualization

To visualize the volume of a single cubic centimeter, imagine a small cube with each side measuring exactly 1 centimeter in length, width, and height.

This is about the size of a standard sugar cube or a small die used in board games.

Understanding this physical size helps in estimating volumes and appreciating the unit's scale in practical situations.

What is a Teaspoon (tsp)?

A teaspoon (tsp) is a unit of volume, but its exact measurement varies by system.

In the metric system, a teaspoon is defined as exactly 5 mL. This is the standard for culinary and medical purposes in most of the world.
In the United States customary system, a teaspoon is defined as 1/6 of a US fluid ounce, which is approximately 4.92892 mL.

In both systems, it is standard that three teaspoons equal one tablespoon.

How Many Milliliters (mL) in a Teaspoon?

For consistency in nutritional labeling, recipes, and medicine, a teaspoon is legally defined in the United States as exactly 5 milliliters (mL).

While the precise scientific conversion is 4.92892 mL, the simpler 5 mL standard is widely adopted for its convenience.

Are All Teaspoons the Same Size?

No, they are not. It's crucial to distinguish between a measuring teaspoon and a cutlery teaspoon (the one you eat with). For accurate kitchen conversions, only a measuring spoon will do.

A measuring teaspoon is a calibrated utensil designed to hold a specific volume: 5 mL.
A cutlery teaspoon, used for stirring coffee or eating, is not standardized and can hold anywhere from 2.5 to 7.3 mL.

For accuracy in all your baking measurements, always use a proper set of measuring spoons.

How Many Teaspoons in a Tablespoon?

The conversion from teaspoons to tablespoons is a simple and memorable 3-to-1 ratio.

There are precisely three teaspoons in 1 tablespoon.

This fundamental relationship (3 tsp = 1 tbsp) is a cornerstone of any recipe measurement, consistent across both US customary and imperial systems.
