For all Volume converters, choose units using the From/To dropdowns above.
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume in the metric system.
It's equal to one-thousandth of a liter (0.001 L). The plural form is milliliters.
A milliliter is the same as one cubic centimeter (1 mL = 1 cm3).
This direct relationship makes converting between liquid volume and cubic measurements incredibly simple.
This is why vehicle engine sizes are often listed in both cubic centimeters (cc) and liters.
For example, a 1500 cc engine is the same as a 1.5-liter engine.
For most practical purposes, one milliliter of water at its densest has a mass of about one gram.
This simple one-to-one relationship makes the metric system very logical for science and cooking, where water is a common ingredient.
Although the official definition of the gram has been updated, this easy approximation remains widely used in many fields.
The milliliter (mL) is a key unit for measuring small amounts of liquid in many different fields.
You can find it everywhere, from kitchens to laboratories.
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.
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.
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.
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.
