What is a cubic centimeter?

A cubic centimeter is a metric unit of volume equal to the space of a cube one centimeter on each side, exactly equal to one milliliter. Long abbreviated 'cc', the cubic centimeter is the classic unit for engine displacement on motorcycles and small engines, and for medical fluid volumes before 'mL' became the preferred medical term.

Common uses of cubic centimeters include: Engine displacement on motorcycles and small engines; Medical fluid volumes (cc); Material volume in engineering and 3D modeling; Laboratory measurements.

What is a milliliter?

A milliliter is a metric unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter (0.001 L) and equal to one cubic centimeter. The milliliter derives from the liter with the Latin prefix 'mille' (thousand). It is the standard small-volume unit in medicine, cooking, and laboratories worldwide, interchangeable with the cubic centimeter (cc).

Common uses of milliliters include: Medicine and syrup dosages; Recipe liquid measurements; Cosmetics and perfume volumes; Laboratory and chemistry work.
