The law of combining volumes applies only to gas volumes?

The law of combining volumes states that the ratios of volumes of reacting gases can be expressed as small whole number ratios. This law is based on the assumption that gases behave ideally, meaning they occupy the same amount of space as predicted by the ideal gas law. Therefore, this law does not apply to the volumes of liquids or solids.


Why is the unit for volume cm?

It isn't. A cm is a centimetre, a unit of length. Imagine, however, a cube exactly one cm long on each edge.
