What is the relationship between milliliters (ml) grams (g) and centimeters cubed (cm3).?

Answer 1

1 ml = 1 cm³

mass (g) and volume (ml or cm³) are linked by the density of the substance:

density = mass/volume

In this case with mass in g and volume in ml or cm³, density has units g/ml or g/cm³.

Answer 2

1 millilitre is the same as a centimetre cubed. There is no relationship with a gram. A cm^3 was defined as the volume of 1 gram of pure water. However, in 1964 - more than 50 years ago - that definition was amended to the one linked to the ml.

The density of water depends on its temperature. At room temperature (20 deg C) the density is 0.998 2071 grams per cm^3 : quite close to one but not equal to it.

Answer 3

Milliliters is a volume measurement that is equal to one centimeter cubed, so they are the same. Grams are a measurement of mass so there is no relationship to milliliters or cubic centimeter's, except the density of a substance is mass per unit volume, or grams per milliliter or grams per cubic centimeter. One gram of water occupies one milliliter and its density is 1 gram/ml, by definition; al lother material densities can be compared to that
