Confirm that cc and mL are identical and convert to 10 other volume units including liters, fluid ounces, cups, pints, quarts, and gallons. Reference table included.
Cubic centimeters and milliliters are identical volumes by definition. One cc equals one mL, so this page exists mainly to confirm that equivalence and then show the same volume in other useful kitchen, lab, and engine-related units.
It also converts to liters, deciliters, fluid ounces, teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, pints, quarts, gallons, and cubic inches. It is especially useful when a medical note, recipe, or engine specification needs a compact unit label but the underlying volume stays exactly the same. That makes it handy when the audience expects a different notation than the one used in the source document. It is especially useful when a medical note, recipe, or engine specification needs a compact unit label but the underlying volume stays exactly the same.
Use it when a cc value needs to be shown as mL or when you want the surrounding volume units in the same result. That extra context helps when you are comparing small lab volumes, kitchen amounts, or engine specs.
The conversion itself is trivial, but the surrounding unit context is often not. It keeps the result readable when you need to compare a small volume across medicine, cooking, and mechanical contexts. This page gives the cc=mL confirmation and the extra units people usually want next, without forcing another lookup. It keeps the result readable when you need to compare a small volume across medicine, cooking, and mechanical contexts.
1 cc = 1 mL (exact, by definition) 1 cc = 0.001 L = 0.033814 fl oz (US) 1 cc = 0.202884 tsp = 0.067628 tbsp 1 cc = 0.004227 cups = 0.002113 pints = 0.001057 quarts = 0.000264 gal (US)
Result: 237 mL = 1 US cup
237 cc = 237 mL exactly. This also equals approximately 1 US cup (236.588 mL), 8 fl oz, or 0.237 liters.
The cc abbreviation means cubic centimeter, and the milliliter is defined to be exactly the same volume. That is why medical charts, recipes, and science references can use either term without changing the quantity.
Cc remains common in medicine and engine-related context, while mL is the preferred modern SI label in chemistry and scientific writing. The calculator is useful when you need the same volume stated in the notation expected by the audience.
Use cc and mL interchangeably for syringe sizes, liquid medicine, lab work, and small kitchen measurements. The useful part of the page is not the conversion itself but the extra unit outputs that make the value easier to read in context.
Yes, exactly. By the international definition, 1 cubic centimeter = 1 milliliter. The two abbreviations are completely interchangeable.
It is mostly historical convention. Many medical contexts still use cc, even though mL is the modern SI-preferred label.
One US teaspoon is approximately 4.93 cc (mL). A metric teaspoon is exactly 5 cc.
One US tablespoon is approximately 14.79 cc. A metric tablespoon is exactly 15 cc (15 mL).
One US cup is approximately 236.588 cc (mL). A metric cup is exactly 250 cc.
Divide the cc value by 29.5735. For example, 100 cc ÷ 29.5735 ≈ 3.38 US fluid ounces.
