Home > Cubic centimetre
A cubic centimetre (cm³) is an SI derived unit of volume, equal to the volume of a cube with side length of 1 centi metre. It was the basic unit of volume of the CGS system of units.In SI units:
1 cm³ = 10−6 cubic metres = 1 milli litre (mL)
The abbreviation cc, although not part of SI, is common in some contexts in English, particularly in American medicine (e.g. "300 cc of crystalloid is required to compensate for each 100 cc of blood loss"). It is also commonly used for denoting displacement of carAn automobile usually called a car (an old word for carriage) or a truck is a wheeled vehicle that carries its own engine.
