Cup (US)
Definition
A cup is a unit of volume in the imperial system and U.S. customary systems. It equals 250 milliliters. In the U.S., it's also 1/16 U.S. customary gallon, 8 fluid ounces, 16 tablespoons, or 48 teaspoons.
Current use
When you need to measure liquids, the cup is used. Cups that are usually seen in drinking are not the standardized measuring cups we use in cooking. When taking a recipe and converting it to cups instead of volume, it is important that you know what size your cup is.
Liter
Definition
A liter is a unit of volume which meets some requirements for use with SI units. It equals 1 cubic decimeter (cm3), 1,000,000 cubic meters (m3), or 1/1,000 cubic meters of pure water at the temperature of maximum density and under a pressure of one atmosphere (atm)
Origin
Kilograms were originally defined as the mass of 1 cubic decimeter of water at 15 degrees Celsius. However, it was found that the prototype kilogram was too large and the liter was increased to 1/100th of a cubic meter (1 dm3). Due to advancements in technology, temperature isn't important anymore and purity is controllable. Using this new information, the liter is now defined as exactly 1/1,000 cubic decimeters of pure water at 4 degrees celsius.
Current use
The pint measures many liquid volumes, as well as containers containing those liquids. It's also used to measure certain non-liquid volume, such as car trunks, backpacks, and climbing packs, computer cases, microwaves, refrigerators, recycling bins and fuel prices in many countries around the world.
