liter

A liter is a measure of volume used to quantify the space an object or substance occupies. It is part of the metric system and is commonly used worldwide for liquids like water, milk, or juice. One liter equals 1,000 cubic centimeters (cm³) or one cubic decimeter (dm³). To visualize, a standard soda bottle typically holds about 1 liter. It’s a practical unit for everyday measurements, especially in cooking, beverages, and scientific contexts, providing a consistent way to compare quantities of liquids.
