Cubic Centimeters - A Unit of Volume

Definition of the Cubic Centimeter

A cubic centimeter (symbol cm3 or cc) is a commonly used unit of volume that corresponds to the volume of a cube with sides of 1 centimeter (0.01 meter) in length. It is also equivalent to 1 milliliter, which is a unit of volume in the metric system.

One cubic centimeter is equal to 0.000001 cubic meters, 0.06102374 cubic inches, or 0.000264172 gallons.

History of the Cubic Centimeter

The cubic centimeter is derived from the centimeter, which is a unit of length that was introduced in France in 1795 as part of the metric system. The centimeter was defined as one hundredth of a meter, which is the base unit of length in the metric system. The meter was originally defined as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole along a meridian, but later redefined based on various physical standards, such as a platinum-iridium bar and a wavelength of light. The current definition of the meter, adopted in 1983, is based on the speed of light in vacuum.

The cubic centimeter was first used as a unit of volume for measuring liquids and gases, such as water, milk, juice, oil, air, and oxygen. The cubic centimeter was also used for measuring some solids, such as sugar, salt, and flour. The cubic centimeter was adopted as a standard unit of measure in many countries that use the metric system, such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Sweden.

How to Convert Cubic Centimeters

To convert cubic centimeters to other units of volume, you need to multiply or divide by the appropriate conversion factor. Here are some common conversion factors and examples:

  • To convert cubic centimeters to cubic meters, multiply by 0.000001.
    • Example: 2 cm3 × 0.000001 = 0.000002 m3
  • To convert cubic centimeters to cubic inches, multiply by 0.06102374.
    • Example: 2 cm3 × 0.06102374 = 0.12204748 in3
  • To convert cubic centimeters to milliliters or liters, multiply by 1 or divide by 1000 respectively.
    • Example: 2 cm3 × 1 = 2 mL or 2 cm3 ÷ 1000 = 0.002 L
  • To convert cubic centimeters to gallons (US liquid), multiply by 0.000264172.
    • Example: 2 cm3 × 0.000264172 = 0.000528344 gal
  • To convert cubic centimeters to bushels (US), multiply by 0.00002837825.
    • Example: 2 cm3 × 0.00002837825 = 0.0000567565 bu
  • To convert cubic centimeters to barrels (oil), multiply by 0.00000628981.
    • Example: 2 cm3 × 0.00000628981 = 0.00001257962 bbl

To convert other units of volume to cubic centimeters, you need to divide by the appropriate conversion factor. Here are some common conversion factors and examples:

  • To convert cubic meters to cubic centimeters, divide by 0.000001.
    • Example: 0.000002 m3 ÷ 0.000001 = 2 cm3
  • To convert cubic inches to cubic centimeters, divide by 0.06102374.
    • Example: 0.12204748 in3 ÷ 0.06102374 = 2 cm3
  • To convert milliliters or liters to cubic centimeters, divide by 1 or multiply by 1000 respectively.
    • Example: 2 mL ÷ 1 = 2 cm3 or 0.002 L × 1000 = 2 cm3
  • To convert gallons (US liquid) to cubic centimeters, divide by 0.000264172.
    • Example: 0.000528344 gal ÷ 0.000264172 = 2 cm3
  • To convert bushels (US) to cubic centimeters, divide by 0.00002837825.
    • Example: 0.0000567565 bu ÷ 0.00002837825 = 2 cm3
  • To convert barrels (oil) to cubic centimeters, divide by 0.00000628981.
    • Example: 0.00001257962 bbl ÷ 0.00000628981 = 2 cm3

Where Cubic Centimeters are Used

Cubic centimeters are used for measuring various materials and substances in different countries and applications.

Some examples are:

Teaspoons: A Unit of Volume

Teaspoons are a unit of volume that are used to measure small amounts of liquids, such as water, milk, oil, vinegar, etc. They are also used to measure some dry ingredients, such as sugar, salt, baking powder, etc. They are different from tablespoons, which are a larger unit of volume. Teaspoons are also different from fluid ounces, which are a larger unit of volume. Teaspoons are also different from barrel of oil equivalent (BOE), which is a unit of energy based on the approximate energy released by burning one barrel of crude oil.

Definition of Teaspoons

A teaspoon is defined as 5 milliliters (ml) in the metric system of measurement. It is equivalent to 0.1667 fluid ounces or 0.0208 cups in the US customary system. A teaspoon is also equal to 0.1758 imperial cups or 0.0014 imperial gallons in the imperial system.

History of Teaspoons

The origin of the term teaspoon as a unit of measure is uncertain, but it may have derived from the French word cuiller à thé, which means a spoon for tea. Spoons have been used since ancient times to eat and serve various foods, especially liquids and soft solids. The size and shape of spoons varied depending on the type and quantity of the foods, the availability of materials, and the customs of different regions and countries.

The use of teaspoons as a unit of measure dates back to the medieval times, when the European system of measurement was established. The standard size of these spoons was about 5 ml, which was also the size of a dram, a unit of measure for apothecaries and pharmacists. The teaspoon was convenient for measuring and dispensing small amounts of liquids and powders for medicinal purposes.

The use of teaspoons as a unit of measure continued until the 20th century, when the metric system of measurement was adopted in most countries. The teaspoon was gradually replaced by units such as milliliters, grams, etc. However, some countries and regions still use teaspoons for certain types of liquids and dry ingredients, especially in cooking and baking.

How to Convert Teaspoons

To convert teaspoons to other units of volume, one can use the following formulas:

  • To convert teaspoons to milliliters: multiply by 5
  • To convert teaspoons to fluid ounces: multiply by 0.1667
  • To convert teaspoons to cups: multiply by 0.0208
  • To convert teaspoons to gallons (US): multiply by 0.001302
  • To convert teaspoons to gallons (UK): multiply by 0.0014
  • To convert teaspoons to BOE: divide by 15950

Where Teaspoons are Used

Teaspoons are mainly used in cooking and baking in some countries and regions that still use the US customary system or the imperial system of measurement. They are often used for measuring and adding liquids such as water, milk, oil, vinegar, etc., and dry ingredients such as sugar, salt, baking powder, etc., to recipes.

In some countries that use the metric system of measurement, such as Canada and Australia, teaspoons are sometimes used as an informal or approximate unit of volume for certain types of liquids and dry ingredients. For example, in Canada, maple syrup is sometimes sold by the teaspoon, which is equivalent to about 5 ml or 0.005 liters.

In some countries that have their own traditional units of volume based on spoons or similar utensils, such as India and China, teaspoons are not commonly used or recognized. Instead, they use units such as chhatak (about 59 ml), chammach (about 10 ml), or shao (about 15 ml).

Example Conversions of Teaspoons to Other Units

Here are some examples of converting teaspoons to other units of volume:

  • 1 teaspoon = 5 milliliters
  • 2 teaspoons = 0.3333 fluid ounces
  • 3 teaspoons = 0.0625 cups
  • 4 teaspoons = 0.005208 gallons (US)
  • 5 teaspoons = 0.007 gallons (UK)
  • 6 teaspoons = 0.000376 BOE
  • 7 teaspoons = 0.000439 BOE.
US teaspoon can be abbreviated as t., ts., tsp. or tspn. one teaspoon as a unit of culinary measure is 1/3 tablespoon, that is, ~4.93 mL. For labeling on food packages in the U.S., the teaspoon is defined by FDA as 5 mL precisely.
