Volume is the space occupied by a substance or object. Volume can also refer to the free space inside a container. Volume is a three-dimensional quantity, unlike, for example, length, which is two-dimensional. Therefore, the volume of flat or two-dimensional objects is zero.
The SI unit of volume is the cubic meter. The standard definition of one cubic meter is the volume of a cube with edges one meter long. Derived units such as cubic centimeters are also widely used.
The liter is one of the most commonly used units in the metric system. It is equal to the volume of a cube with edges 10 cm long:
1 liter = 10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm = 1000 cubic centimeters
This is the same as 0.001 cubic meters. The mass of one liter of water at a temperature of 4°C is approximately equal to one kilogram. Milliliters, equal to one cubic centimeter or 1/1000 of a liter, are also often used. Milliliter is usually denoted as ml.
Gills are units of volume used in the United States to measure alcoholic beverages. One jill is five fluid ounces in the British Imperial system or four in the American system. One American jill is equal to a quarter of a pint or half a cup. Irish pubs serve strong drinks in portions of a quarter jill, or 35.5 milliliters. In Scotland, portions are smaller - one fifth of a jill, or 28.4 milliliters. In England, until recently, portions were even smaller, just one-sixth of a jill or 23.7 milliliters. Now, it’s 25 or 35 milliliters, depending on the rules of the establishment. The owners can decide for themselves which of the two portions to serve.
Dram, or drachma, is a measure of volume, mass, and also a coin. In the past, this measure was used in pharmacy and was equal to one teaspoon. Later, the standard volume of a teaspoon changed, and one spoon became equal to 1 and 1/3 drachms.
Liquids in cooking recipes are usually measured by volume. Bulk and dry products in the metric system, on the contrary, are measured by mass.
The volume of a teaspoon is different in different measurement systems. Initially, one teaspoon was a quarter of a tablespoon, then - one third. It is the latter volume that is now used in the American measurement system. This is approximately 4.93 milliliters. In American dietetics, the size of a teaspoon is 5 milliliters. In the UK it is common to use 5.9 milliliters, but some diet guides and cookbooks use 5 milliliters. The size of a teaspoon used in cooking is usually standardized in each country, but different sizes of spoons are used for food.
The volume of a tablespoon also varies depending on the geographic region. So, for example, in America, one tablespoon is three teaspoons, half an ounce, approximately 14.7 milliliters, or 1/16 of an American cup. Tablespoons in the UK, Canada, Japan, South Africa and New Zealand also contain three teaspoons. So, a metric tablespoon is 15 milliliters. A British tablespoon is 17.7 milliliters, if a teaspoon is 5.9, and 15 if a teaspoon is 5 milliliters. Australian tablespoon - ⅔ ounce, 4 teaspoons, or 20 milliliters.
As a measure of volume, cups are not defined as strictly as spoons. The volume of the cup can vary from 200 to 250 milliliters. A metric cup is 250 milliliters, and an American cup is slightly smaller, approximately 236.6 milliliters. In American dietetics, the volume of a cup is 240 milliliters. In Japan, cups are even smaller - only 200 milliliters.
Gallons and quarts also have different sizes depending on the geographic region where they are used. In the Imperial system of measurement, one gallon is equal to 4.55 liters, and in the American system of measurements - 3.79 liters. Fuel is generally measured in gallons. A quart is equal to a quarter of a gallon and, accordingly, 1.1 liters in the American system, and approximately 1.14 liters in the Imperial system.
Pints are used to measure beer even in countries where the pint is not used to measure other liquids. In the UK, milk and cider are measured in pints. A pint is equal to one-eighth of a gallon. Some other countries in the Commonwealth of Nations and Europe also use pints, but since they depend on the definition of a gallon, and a gallon has a different volume depending on the country, pints are also not the same everywhere. An imperial pint is approximately 568.2 milliliters, and an American pint is 473.2 milliliters.
An imperial ounce is approximately equal to 0.96 US ounces. Thus, an imperial ounce contains approximately 28.4 milliliters, and an American ounce contains approximately 29.6 milliliters. One US ounce is also approximately equal to six teaspoons, two tablespoons, and one eighth cup.
The volume of an object can be calculated using the fluid displacement method. To do this, it is lowered into a liquid of a known volume, a new volume is geometrically calculated or measured, and the difference between these two quantities is the volume of the object being measured. For example, if when you lower an object into a cup with one liter of water, the volume of the liquid increases to two liters, then the volume of the object is one liter. In this way, you can only calculate the volume of objects that do not absorb liquid.
The volume of geometric shapes can be calculated using the following formulas:
Prism: the product of the area of the base of the prism and the height.
Rectangular parallelepiped: product of length, width and height.
Cube: length of an edge to the third power.
Ellipsoid: product of semi-axes and 4/3π.
Pyramid: one third of the product of the area of the base of the pyramid and the height. Post a question in TCTerms and within a few minutes you will receive an answer.
: 1 l = 1 dm³ = 0.001 m³. This definition was adopted in 1964 at the 12th General Conference on Weights and Measures.

Measure all required distances in meters. The volume of many three-dimensional figures can be easily calculated using the appropriate formulas. However, all values substituted into formulas must be measured in meters. Therefore, before plugging values into the formula, make sure that they are all measured in meters, or that you have converted other units of measurement to meters.
To calculate the volume of rectangular figures (cuboid, cube), use the formula: volume = L × W × H(length times width times height). This formula can be considered as the product of the surface area of one of the faces of the figure and the edge perpendicular to this face.
To calculate the volume of figures in the form of a cylinder, use the formula: pi× R 2 × H. Calculating the volume of a cylinder comes down to multiplying the area of the circular base by the height (or length) of the cylinder. Find the area of the circular base by multiplying pi (3.14) by the square of the radius of the circle (R) (radius is the distance from the center of the circle to any point lying on this circle). Then multiply the result by the height of the cylinder (H) and you will find the volume of the cylinder. All values are measured in meters.
To calculate the volume of a ball, use the formula: 4/3 x pi× R 3 . That is, you only need to know the radius (R) of the ball.
To calculate the volume of cone-shaped figures, use the formula: 1/3 x pi× R 2 × H. The volume of a cone is equal to 1/3 of the volume of a cylinder, which has the same height and radius.
To calculate the volume of irregular shapes, use several formulas. To do this, try to break the figure into several figures of the correct shape. Then find the volume of each such figure and add up the results.
The space in which our entire Universe fits is three-dimensional. Any body in this space occupies a certain volume. Liquids and solids, unlike gases, have a constant volume under certain external conditions. Volume is most often measured in cubic meters for solids and in liters for liquids. Let's consider the question of how to convert liters to cubic meters and vice versa.
Before we figure out how to convert liters to cubic meters, let's consider the concept of volume itself. Volume is understood as the property inherent in liquid and solid bodies to occupy some part of physical space. In the International System of Units (SI) this value is expressed in cubic meters (m3), but other units are often used.
Below is a list of just a few of them:
To determine the volume of a body, you need to know three quantities: the length, width and height of this body.
Also, the volume of a body is understood not only as external dimensions, but also as its ability to contain other bodies. For example, the volumes of various vessels are determined within the framework of this latter concept. The ability of vessels to contain certain volumes of other bodies is used to calculate this physical quantity for liquids, while the volume of solids is calculated taking into account their external dimensions.
Before answering the question of how to convert liters to cubic meters, we will describe the difference between liquids and solids, considering them from the point of view of volume as a physical quantity.
As mentioned above, liquids and solids are similar in that they retain volume under constant conditions, that is, pressure and temperature. This property of condensed media distinguishes them from gaseous media, which always occupy the volume provided to them. The difference between liquids and solids is that they do not retain their shape, that is, they are capable of changing it with an infinitesimal force that acts on liquid bodies.
This difference leads to the fact that one or another mathematical formula can be used to calculate the volume of a solid body. For example, the volume of a cube is equal to a 3, where a is the side of this cube, the volume of a ball is calculated by the formula 4/3 x pi x r 3, where r is the radius of the ball. For liquid bodies, such formulas do not exist, since for them the shape is not constant. The volumes of liquid bodies are measured using vessels.
Finally, we have come close to the issue of converting some quantities into others for the volumes of bodies. How to convert liters to cubic meters? It’s quite simple, for this you need to know that 1 m 3 contains 1000 liters. On the contrary, 1 liter is 0.001 m3. Thus, convert the cube. meters to liters is possible if you use a simple proportion: x [l] = A [m 3 ] x 1 [l] / (0.001 [m 3 ]) = 1000 x A [l], where A is the known volume in cubic meters.
The inverse formula for converting volume in liters to cubic meters will be: A [m 3 ] = x / 1000 [m 3 ], here x is the known volume in liters.
Let's give an example: let's answer the question of how to convert liters to cubic meters if the volume of a certain body is 324 liters. Using the above formula, we get: A [m 3 ] = x / 1000 [m 3 ] = 324 / 1000 = 0.324 m 3 .
When performing construction work, for example, when laying or repairing certain types of roofing, liquefied gas is used. When estimate documentation is drawn up for work related to the use of gas, estimators sometimes encounter the following problem: How to convert cubic meters to liters.
The fact is that liquefied gas is most often supplied in cylinders, the volume of which is measured in liters. In estimate documentation, calculations most often use the international system of SI units, in which a cubic meter is taken as a unit of volume. To calculate the number of gas cylinders and determine their cost, you should makeconverting m3 to liters.
Density is the quantitative value of mass in kilograms placed in a cubic meter. A very ambiguous value and depends on many factors. The main one is temperature. So, the density of propane-butane can vary from 490 to 619 kg/m3.
Cubic meter (m³)- unit of measurement of volume in the SI system. One cubic meter is equal to the volume of a cube with a side of 1 meter. This unit is a derivative of the SI unit meter, which is defined as "the distance traveled by light in a vacuum in a period of time equal to 1⁄299,792,458 seconds."
Liter (l)- a non-systemic metric unit of volume equal to one cubic decimeter (dm³), 1000 cubic centimeters (cm³) or 10⁻³ cubic meter (m³).
1 cubic meter [m³] = 1000 liter [l]
It must be noted right away that a simple calculation based on how many liters in a cube, in our case does not work. 1 m3 contains 1000 liters of air, water or other substance in normal condition. However, the cylinders contain liquid gas, and it is there at high pressure and low temperature. To use the substance, it must be brought into the gaseous phase, and its volume increases many times over.

The parameters and dimensions of oxygen cylinders for propane, butane and their mixtures can be viewed according to GOST 15860-84. Currently, four types of these products are used, with volumes of 5, 12, 27 and 50 liters.
To translate propane butane gas from cubic meters of gaseous to liters of liquid gas, it is necessary to know the density of the liquid gas and the specific gravity of the substance. Density depends on the temperature and proportions of the propane-butane mixture, and is easily determined using tables. The specific gravity of propane-butane is determined in laboratory conditions. In calculations we can use the average indicator.
Under normal atmospheric conditions and a temperature of 15°C, the density of propane in the liquid state is 510 kg/m3, and butane 580 kg/m3. Propane in the gas state at atmospheric pressure and temperature 15°C is 1.9 kg/m3, and butane is 2.55 kg/m3. Under normal atmospheric conditions and a temperature of 15°C, 0.392 m3 of gas is formed from 1 kg of liquid butane, and 0.526 m3 from 1 kg of propane.
Knowing the volume of a gas and its specific gravity, we can determine its mass. So, if the estimate indicates 27 m 3 of technical propane-butane, then multiplying 27 by 2.25 we find out that this volume weighs 60.27 kg. Now, knowing the density of liquefied gas, you can calculate its volume in liters or cubic decimeters. The density of propane-butane in the ratio 80/20 at a temperature of 10 C is 0.528 kg/dm 3. Knowing the formula for the density of a substance (mass divided by volume), we can find the volume of 60.27 kg of gas. It is 60.27 kg / 0.528 kg/dm 3 = 114.15 dm 3 or 114 liters.
So, 27 cubic meters of propane-butane gas are equal to 114 liters of liquefied gas. So that every time you translate m 3 to liters Without using formulas, we will derive the ratio: 27 m 3 = 107 l, therefore 1 m 3 = 4.2 l. Using reference data and simple formulas, you can easily make calculations that help in drawing up estimates.

Example: It is known that a car is filled with 100 liters of gas with a density of 0.53. To calculate the number of kilograms of gas, you need to multiply 100 by 0.53. You will get 53 kg of gas.
Let's calculate the weight of the propane-butane mixture in the most common cylinder in construction: volume 50 with a maximum gas pressure of 1.6 MPa. The proportion of propane according to GOST 15860-84 must be at least 60% (note 1 to Table 2):
50l = 50dm3 = 0.05m3;
0.05 m3 (510 0.6 + 580 0.4) = 26.9 kg
But due to the gas pressure limitation of 1.6 MPa on the walls, more than 21 kg cannot be filled into a cylinder of this type.
Let's calculate the volume of the propane-butane mixture in the gaseous state:
21kg (0.526 0.6 + 0.392 0.4) = 9.93 m3
Conclusion (for the case under consideration): 1 cylinder = 50l = 21kg = 9.93m3
Example: It is known that a 50-liter cylinder contains 21 kilograms of gas, whose test density is 0.567. To calculate liters you need to divide 21 by 0.567. The result is 37.04 liters of gas.
