In the centimeter/gram/second system, the unit of volume is the cube of the unit of length = 'cc' or 'cubic centimeter' or 'cm3'.

The ratio of CGS unit to SI unit of energy is 1 CGS unit to 10^7 SI units. This means that 1 erg in CGS units is equivalent to 10^-7 joules in SI units when measuring energy.

In the CGS system, the unit of frequency is measured in hertz (Hz), just like in the International System of Units (SI).
The centimetre-gram-second system (abbreviated CGS or cgs) is a metric system of physical units based on centimetre as the unit of length, gram as a unit of mass, and second as a unit of time. All CGS mechanical units are unambiguously derived from these three base units, but there are several different ways of extending the CGS system to cover electromagnetism.CGS approach to electromagnetic units The conversion factors relating electromagnetic units in the CGS and SI systems are much more involved - so much so that formulas for physical laws of electromagnetism are adjusted depending on what system of units one uses. refer to link below for methods
In the CGS system, the unit of mole is the "mole" itself. The quantity of substance is still represented by Avogadro's number, which is approximately (6.022 \times 10^{23}) entities.
