Convert cubic centimeter to milliliter
Please provide values below to convert cubic centimeter [cm^3] to milliliter [mL], or Convert milliliter to cubic centimeter.
1 cm^3 = 1 mL. To convert cubic centimeter to milliliter, multiply the value by 1; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mL = 1 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 cm^3 = 1 mL
- 1 mL = 1 cm^3
- 10 cm^3 = 10 mL
- 100 cm^3 = 100 mL
How to Convert Cubic Centimeter to Milliliter
1 cm^3 = 1 mL
Example: convert 15 cm^3 to mL:
15 cm^3 = 15 × 1 mL = 15 mL

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).
Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter, commonly used to measure small quantities of liquids.
History/Origin
The milliliter was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century, aligning with the liter as the base unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
The milliliter is widely used in science, medicine, cooking, and everyday measurements to quantify liquids and small volumes.
