Convert attoliter to cubic centimeter
Please provide values below to convert attoliter [aL] to cubic centimeter [cm^3], or Convert cubic centimeter to attoliter.
1 aL = 1.0000e-15 cm^3. To convert attoliter to cubic centimeter, multiply the value by 1.0000e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cm^3 = 1.0000e+15 aL). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 aL = 1.0000e-15 cm^3
- 1 cm^3 = 1.0000e+15 aL
- 10 aL = 1.0000e-14 cm^3
- 100 aL = 1.0000e-13 cm^3
How to Convert Attoliter to Cubic Centimeter
1 aL = 1e-15 cm^3
Example: convert 15 aL to cm^3:
15 aL = 15 × 1e-15 cm^3 = 1.5e-14 cm^3

Attoliter
An attoliter (aL) is a unit of volume equal to 10^-18 liters, representing an extremely small volume measurement.
History/Origin
The attoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to create standardized prefixes for very small quantities, following the adoption of the International System of Units (SI). It is derived from the prefix 'atto-' which denotes 10^-18.
Current Use
Attoliters are primarily used in scientific research, particularly in fields like biochemistry and nanotechnology, to measure tiny volumes such as those of individual molecules or small biological samples.
Cubic Centimeter
A cubic centimeter (cm^3) is a unit of volume equal to the volume of a cube with sides of one centimeter.
History/Origin
The cubic centimeter has been used in scientific and engineering contexts as a standard unit of volume measurement, especially in fields like medicine and chemistry, since the adoption of the metric system in the 19th century.
Current Use
Today, the cubic centimeter is commonly used to measure small volumes in medicine (e.g., dosage), automotive engine capacities, and scientific experiments, often interchangeably with milliliters (mL).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attoliter in cubic centimeter?
1 attoliter (aL) = 1.0000e-15 cubic centimeter (cm^3).
How do you convert attoliter to cubic centimeter?
Multiply the attoliter value by 1.0000e-15. For example, 25 aL × 1.0000e-15 = 2.5000e-14 cm^3.
What is 10 attoliter in cubic centimeter?
10 aL = 1.0000e-14 cm^3.
Which unit is larger, the attoliter or the cubic centimeter?
The cubic centimeter is the larger unit: 1 aL equals only 1.0000e-15 cm^3.
