Milliliters - A Unit of Volume

Definition of the Milliliter

A milliliter (international spelling) or milliliter (American English spelling) (SI symbol mL or ml) is a unit of volume that is used in the metric system. It is defined as one thousandth of a liter, or the volume of a cube with sides of 1 millimeter (0.001 meter) in length.

One milliliter is equal to 1 cubic centimeter, 0.000001 cubic meters, or 0.001 cubic decimeters.

History of the Milliliter

The milliliter is derived from the liter, which is a unit of volume that was first used by the French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1795 as a unit of volume for liquids and gases. The liter was originally defined as the volume of one kilogram of pure water at 4 °C and standard atmospheric pressure. The liter was later redefined several times based on different physical standards, such as a platinum-iridium cylinder and a wavelength of light. The current definition of the liter, adopted in 1964, is based on the cubic meter, which is the SI unit of volume. The liter is not an SI unit, but it is accepted by the CGPM (the standards body that defines the SI) for use with the SI.

The milliliter was introduced as a subunit of the liter in the metric system in 1795, along with other decimal subunits such as the centiliter and the deciliter. The milliliter was used for measuring very small volumes of liquids and gases, such as medicine, perfume, ink, and blood. The milliliter was also used for measuring some solids, such as granulated sugar, salt, and flour. The milliliter 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 Milliliters

To convert milliliters 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 milliliters to cubic centimeters, multiply by 1.
- Example: 2 mL × 1 = 2 cm3
To convert milliliters to cubic meters, multiply by 0.000001.
- Example: 2 mL × 0.000001 = 0.000002 m3
To convert milliliters to cubic decimeters, multiply by 0.001.
- Example: 2 mL × 0.001 = 0.002 dm3
To convert milliliters to gallons (US liquid), multiply by 0.000264.
- Example: 2 mL × 0.000264 = 0.000528 gal
To convert milliliters to bushels (US), multiply by 0.0000374.
- Example: 2 mL × 0.0000374 = 0.0000748 bu
To convert milliliters to barrels (oil), multiply by 0.0000063.
- Example: 2 mL × 0.0000063 = 0.0000126 bbl

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

To convert cubic centimeters to milliliters, divide by 1.
- Example: 2 cm3 ÷ 1 = 2 mL
To convert cubic meters to milliliters, divide by 0.000001.
- Example: 0.000002 m3 ÷ 0.000001 = 2 mL
To convert cubic decimeters to milliliters, divide by 0.001.
- Example: 0.002 dm3 ÷ 0.001 = 2 mL
To convert gallons (US liquid) to milliliters, divide by 0.000264.
- Example: 0.000528 gal ÷ 0.000264 = 2 mL
To convert bushels (US) to milliliters, divide by 0.0000374.
- Example: 0.0000748 bu ÷ 0.0000374 = 2 mL
To convert barrels (oil) to milliliters, divide by 0.0000063.
- Example: 0.0000126 bbl ÷ 0.0000063 = 2 mL

Where Milliliters are Used

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

Some examples are:

In many countries that use the metric system, milliliters are used for measuring liquids and gases, such as water, milk, juice, soda, beer, wine, oil, fuel, air, and oxygen.
In some countries that use the imperial system, such as the United States and Canada, milliliters are used for measuring some liquids and gases, such as medicine, perfume, ink, and blood.
In the European Union, milliliters are used for measuring fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions of vehicles.
In the medical industry, milliliters are used for measuring blood volume, urine output, and intravenous fluid administration.
In the scientific industry, milliliters are used for measuring chemical solutions, reactions, and concentrations.

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.
