Cubic Centimeter
A cubic centimeter (cm³ or cc) is a small metric unit of volume equal to the space inside a cube measuring one centimeter on each side. One cubic centimeter is the same as one milliliter (1 cm³ = 1 mL), which makes it useful for precise measurements in science, medicine, and product specifications.
You’ll see cubic centimeters used to describe engine sizes, medical dosages, small liquid containers, and laboratory measurements. When converting to other metric units — like milliliters or liters — the relationship is simple, but switching to US units such as teaspoons or fluid ounces is easier with an online converter.
Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a small metric unit of volume used to measure liquids and very small quantities. One milliliter is equal to one cubic centimeter (1 mL = 1 cm³) and one-thousandth of a liter (1000 mL = 1 L). Because of its precision, the milliliter is commonly used in medicine, cooking, product packaging, and scientific experiments.
You’ll find milliliters marked on measuring cups, beverage labels, and syringes. When you need to convert milliliters to other units — such as teaspoons, tablespoons, or fluid ounces — an online converter makes it easy to avoid errors in recipes and dosage instructions.
