since a liter is 1000 ml does it not follow 1 cm =10 ml.
(10cm x 10cm x 10cm = 1000ml)
By definition, 1 liter = 1 cubic decimeter (10cm x 10cm x 10cm = 1000cm³)
Also by definition, 1 liter = 1000 ml.
So:
1000cm³ = 1000ml
Therefore:
1cm³ = 1ml

Previously, a liter was defined to be 1.000028 cubic decimeter. For all practical purposes, then, a cc (correctly, cm³) has always equaled a milliliter.
