How to Convert Cubic Centimeter (cc) to Teaspoon (UK)
To mL: 1 cc = 1 mL (exact). To liters: divide by 1,000. To fluid ounces (US): multiply by 0.033814.
1 cc = 1 cm³ = 1 mL = 10⁻⁶ m³ = 1,000 mm³. CC and mL are fully interchangeable.
For example, 1 Cubic Centimeter (cc) (cc) = 0.1689363262 Teaspoon (UK) (tsp (UK)).

About Cubic Centimeter (cc) (cc)
Definition
The cc (cubic centimeter) is a unit of volume exactly equal to one milliliter and one cubic centimeter, widely used in medicine and automotive contexts.
Mathematical Relationship
1 cc = 1 cm³ = 1 mL = 10⁻⁶ m³ = 1,000 mm³. CC and mL are fully interchangeable.
Conversion Formula
To mL: 1 cc = 1 mL (exact). To liters: divide by 1,000. To fluid ounces (US): multiply by 0.033814.
Practical Applications
Medical syringe volumes (e.g., '10 cc syringe'), motorcycle engine displacement (e.g., 600 cc), and IV fluid administration.
Interesting Facts
The ISMP (Institute for Safe Medication Practices) recommends using 'mL' instead of 'cc' in healthcare to prevent medication errors.
Common Mistakes
Confusing cc with other abbreviations in handwritten prescriptions. Healthcare is shifting to 'mL' to reduce errors.
Educational Tips
CC = cm³ = mL — all the same volume. In medicine, prefer mL. In automotive, cc is standard for engine size.
About Teaspoon (UK) (tsp (UK))
Definition
The UK teaspoon is a unit of culinary volume equal to approximately 5.919 milliliters, slightly larger than its US counterpart.
Mathematical Relationship
1 UK tsp ≈ 5.919 mL. Approximately 1.2 times the US teaspoon (4.929 mL).
Conversion Formula
To mL: multiply by 5.919. To US teaspoons: multiply by 1.201. To metric teaspoons: multiply by 1.184.
Practical Applications
Traditional British recipes, Commonwealth cooking, and older pharmaceutical dosing in the UK.
Interesting Facts
The UK teaspoon is about 20% larger than the US teaspoon. A recipe calling for 5 UK teaspoons would need 6 US teaspoons.
Common Mistakes
Assuming UK and US teaspoons are the same — the UK teaspoon is about 20% larger. This matters in precise baking.
Educational Tips
Modern UK recipes increasingly use metric (5 mL teaspoons). When following older UK recipes, a UK tsp ≈ 6 mL.
