How to Convert Drops to Cubic Centimeters

When a liquid is dispensed from a dropper, the volume of these drops can be measured and converted into cubic centimeters, which are easier for scientists to use. A cubic centimeter, also known as 1 cc, is the volume occupied by a liquid when it is placed in a container with the dimensions 1 cm by 1 cm by 1 cm. Converting drops to cubic centimeters is a simple task that can be done manually or with an online conversion tool.

      Write down the quantity of drops you need to convert to cubic centimeters. The rule is one drop of water is equal to 0.05 cc. Multiply the number of drops by 0.05 to convert from drops to cubic centimeters.

      For example, if you need to convert 30 drops into cubic centimeters: 30 x 0.05 = 1.5 cc.
