Milliliter
Definition
A milliliter (mL) is a volume unit in the International System of Units (SI) context, defined as 1 cubic centimeter (cm³), 0.001 liters, or 1 × 10⁻⁶ cubic meters.
History & Origin
The milliliter stems from the liter—originally the French litre, derived from litron. Early 20th-century definitions tied the litre to water’s mass; modern usage fixes it simply as a thousandth of a cubic decimeter.
Nuvarande användning
Milliliters are ubiquitous for small-volume measurements: medicine syringes, lab pipettes, travel-size toiletries, condiment bottles, and nutritional labels. They provide the fine precision needed in kitchens and laboratories alike.
Liter
Definition
A liter (L) is accepted for use with SI and equals 1 cubic decimeter (dm³), 1 000 cubic centimeters (cm³), or 0.001 cubic meters (m³).
History & Origin
From 1901 to 1964, a litre was once defined by the mass of one kilogram of water at its densest point. Variations in water’s properties led to the current, straightforward definition based on cubic decimeters.
Nuvarande användning
Liters measure beverage bottles, fuel volumes at the pump, appliance interiors, and pack capacities. They remain the global standard for everyday liquid and semi-solid volumes outside the U.S. customary system.
