The difference between cm² (square centimeters) and cm³ (cubic centimeters) lies in their dimensions and what they measure. cm² is a unit of area, representing a two-dimensional space, while cm³ is a unit of volume, representing a three-dimensional space. In practical terms, cm² is used for measuring surfaces, such as the area of a table, whereas cm³ is used for measuring capacity or volume, such as the space inside a box.

What is the density of a block of wood with mass OS 120 g and volume of 200 cm2?
The volume should be 200 cm3, not cm2. Density = Mass/Volume = 120g /200 cm3 = 0.6 g/cm3
How many cm2 in a dm2?
There are 10 cm in 1 dm Then there are 102=100 cm2 in 1 dm2 and there are 103=1000 cm3 in 1 dm3
What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a base area of 32 cm2 and a height of 7 cm?
volume_prism = area_base x height = 32 cm2 x 7 cm = 224 cm3
How many sq inches are in 4 inches x 4 inches?
16 cm2 (64 cm3 or cubed)
Is 30 mL greater than 30 cm2?
These two numbers cannot be compared, as 30 mL is a volume, and 30 cm2(square centimeter) is an area. However if you compare with 30 cm3(cubic centimeter) then they are equal. 1 Liter is defined as 1 dm3 = (10 cm)3 = 1000 cm3.
