Because it is The meter scale is broken up into kilo, hecto, deca, (base), deci, centi, milli. Kilometer, Hectometer, Decameter, meter, decimeter, centimeter, and millimeter. This is the same for all Metric unit systems such as liters. The left side is the largest while the right side is the smallest. That is why a centiliter is greater than a milliliter.
It is inappropriate to be talking about "lighter" or heavier" with regard to liters and centiliters (or milliliters or deciliters, etc.) Why? Because the liter (and its fractional parts) is a unit of volume or capacity, not weight. You may say that a liter is 100 times greater in volume than a centiliter. You could say that a liter is ten times greater in volume than a deciliter. You could also say that a deciliter is ten times greater in volume than a centiliter. But one is not necessarily heavier or lighter than another. Unless, of course, you have a liter and centiliter of the same substance! A liter of water, for example, will be 100 times heavier than a centiliter of water -- as long as both are at identical temperatures. (Water at 4 degrees Celsius is denser than water at higher and lower temperatures, so a liter of water at 4 degrees C will weigh more than 100 times a centiliter of water at higher or lower temps.)
Millimeters and centiliters measure different things. Millimeters measure distance, while centiliters measure volume. One millimeter is smaller than one centiliter in terms of volume.
No, it is less than 25.4 liters. 100 centiliters is 1 liter so 254 centiliters is 2.54 liters
Yes, 100cl is greater than 750ml. One centiliter (cl) is equivalent to 10 milliliters (ml), so 100cl is equal to 1000ml, which is larger than 750ml.
Yes
Yes.
a liter is equal to 100 centiliters. is a centiliter a greater measure than a milliliter?
Centiliter is a measure for volume and millimeter is for length/distance. Therefore, you cannot compare them.
Yes, it is larger.
1 milliliter = 0.001 liter and 1 centiliter = 0.01 liter
Yes 10 times greater.
centi means one hundredth (1/100) milli is 1 thousandth (1/1000) therefore centilitre is 10 times larger than millilitre
A centiliter is greater than a milliliter. One centiliter is equal to 10 milliliters.
There Is No Such Thing As A Centiliter.
They cannot be compared. Centiliter measures volume, micrometer measures length.
