Best Answer

Metric units are: mass=grams; volume=liters; and length=meters.

Prefixes are used to make the numbers manageable.

You can use litres for volume, but it is often mis-used where the cubic metre would be appropriate, such as in specifying the load space inside a vehicle. The litre is better left for liquid measures.

In the International System of Units (SI), the standard units are:

  • Mass is measured in grams
  • Volume is measured in litres
  • Length is measured in metres

The above answer relates to various archaic versions of the metric system, but not to the SI system. For the SI system, the answers are:

  • length -metre
  • mass -kilogram
  • volume -cubic metre

There are no standard units in the Imperial system, but some commonly used ones are:

  • Mass is measured in ounces, pounds, or stones
  • Volume is measured in fluid ounces, pints, quarts, or gallons*
  • Lenth is measured in inches, feet, yards, or miles

* The Imperial gallon is 160 ounces, the USA uses its own gallon of 128 ounces.
