The litre (Commonwealth spelling) or liter (American spelling) (SI symbols L and l, [1] other symbol used: ℓ) is a metric unit of volume. It is equal to 1 cubic decimetre (dm 3 ), 1000 cubic centimetres (cm 3 ) or 0.001 cubic metres (m 3 ).
The gram per cubic centimetre is a unit of density in the CGS system, and is commonly used in chemistry. It is defined by dividing the CGS unit of mass, the gram, by the CGS unit of volume, the cubic centimetre. The official SI symbols are g/cm 3, g·cm −3, or g cm −3.
A cubic centimetre (or cubic centimeter in US English) (SI unit symbol: cm 3; non-SI abbreviations: cc and ccm) is a commonly used unit of volume that corresponds to the volume of a cube that measures 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm. One cubic centimetre corresponds to a volume of one millilitre.

The conversion between the prefix units are as follows: 1000 mm 3 = 1 cm 3, 1000 cm 3 = 1 dm 3, and 1000 dm 3 = 1 m 3. [1] The metric system also includes the litre (L) as a unit of volume, where 1 L = 1 dm 3 = 1000 cm 3 = 0.001 m 3.
Conversions between units in the metric system are defined by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams) and are thus not listed in this article. Exceptions are made if the unit is commonly known by another name (for example, 1 micron = 10 −6 metre).
The kayser (K) is a unit of wavenumber equal to 1 cm −1 (100 m −1). The gal (Gal) is a unit of acceleration equal to 1 cm/s 2. [3] The dyne (dyn) is a unit of force equal to 1 g⋅cm⋅s −2 (10 μN). [3] The barye (Ba) is a unit of pressure equal to 1 dyn⋅cm −2 (100 mPa). The erg (erg) is a unit of energy equal to 1 dyn⋅cm (100 nJ). [3]
