VOLUME
Volume is the amount of space occupied by an
object. The derived SI unit for volume is cubic
meters. The cubic meter is rather large, so a more
common unit of cubic centimeters is more
commonly used.
Non-SI units are also used to measure volume
such as the milliliter (mL) and the liter (L), which is
1000 cm3. There are 1000 mL in 1 L.
Beakers, flasks, and graduated cylinders are often
used to determine the volume of liquids.
