Convert cc to picoliter
Please provide values below to convert cc [cc, cm^3] to picoliter [pL], or Convert picoliter to cc.
1 cc, cm^3 = 1000000000 pL. To convert cc to picoliter, multiply the value by 1000000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pL = 1e-09 cc, cm^3). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cc, cm^3 = 1000000000 pL
- 1 pL = 1e-09 cc, cm^3
- 10 cc, cm^3 = 10000000000 pL
- 100 cc, cm^3 = 100000000000 pL
How to Convert Cc to Picoliter
1 cc, cm^3 = 1000000000 pL
Example: convert 15 cc, cm^3 to pL:
15 cc, cm^3 = 15 × 1000000000 pL = 15000000000 pL

Cc
The cubic centimeter (cc or cm^3) is a unit of volume representing the volume of a cube with sides of one centimeter.
History/Origin
The cubic centimeter has been used in scientific and medical contexts as a convenient measure of small volumes, especially in fields like medicine and engineering, evolving from the metric system's adoption in the 19th century.
Current Use
Today, the cubic centimeter is commonly used to measure small volumes in medicine (e.g., syringe capacities), automotive engine displacements, and scientific applications, often interchangeably with milliliters (mL).
Picoliter
A picoliter (pL) is a unit of volume equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a liter.
History/Origin
The picoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to create smaller units for measuring very small volumes, especially in scientific and technological fields, during the late 20th century.
Current Use
Picoliters are commonly used in fields such as biochemistry, molecular biology, and microfluidics to measure tiny liquid volumes, such as in DNA analysis, microarray experiments, and lab-on-a-chip devices.
