Milliliter
Definition: A milliliter (symbol: mL) is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to approx. 1/1000 of a liter or 1 cubic centimeter (cm³).
History/origin: The milliliter was introduced as part of the metric system in 1795. It was derived from the liter, which was defined based on the volume of water. The milliliter is widely used for smaller liquid measurements.
Current use: Commonly used in medicine, cooking, and science for precise liquid measurements.
Liter
Definition: A liter (symbol: L) is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to approx. 1 cubic decimeter (dm³) or 0.001 cubic meters (m³).
History/origin: The liter was introduced in 1795 in France as part of the metric system during the French Revolution. Initially defined as the volume of one kilogram of water at its maximum density, it was later refined to be exactly 1 cubic decimeter. The liter has been widely adopted worldwide as a standard unit for measuring liquids.
Current use: Used globally for measuring liquids and gases in various fields, including science, industry, and everyday life.
