About Milliliter (mL)

Definition

The milliliter is a unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter (10⁻³ L), exactly equal to one cubic centimeter.

Mathematical Relationship

1 mL = 10⁻³ L = 1 cm³ = 1 cc = 1,000 µL. There are 1,000 mL in one liter.

Conversion Formula

To liters: divide by 1,000. To fluid ounces (US): multiply by 0.033814. To teaspoons (US): multiply by 0.202884.

Practical Applications

Medicine dosing, cooking measurements, beverage volumes (e.g., 330 mL soda can), and cosmetic product sizing.

Interesting Facts

A standard soda can holds 330–355 mL. A shot glass holds about 44 mL. One mL of water weighs exactly 1 gram at 4 °C.

Common Mistakes

Confusing mL with mg (volume vs. mass). Also, 1 mL of oil or alcohol does NOT weigh 1 gram — only water does (at 4 °C).

Educational Tips

1 teaspoon ≈ 5 mL, 1 tablespoon ≈ 15 mL. These are the best kitchen anchors. A standard medicine syringe holds 5 mL.

About Cup (UK) (cup (UK))

Definition

The UK (imperial) cup is a unit of volume equal to 10 UK fluid ounces, or approximately 284.131 milliliters.

Mathematical Relationship

1 UK cup = 10 UK fl oz = 1/2 UK pint = 284.131 mL ≈ 1.2 US cups.

Conversion Formula

To mL: multiply by 284.131. To US cups: multiply by 1.201. To liters: multiply by 0.284131.

Common Mistakes

Using a US cup measure for a UK recipe — the 20% difference can ruin baked goods. Check the recipe's origin.

Educational Tips

UK kitchens rarely use cups now — most British recipes specify grams and mL. If you see 'cups' in a UK recipe, it's 284 mL.
