How to convert liters to milliliters
Move between bottle capacities and smaller liquid quantities. One liter contains 1,000 milliliters.
Formula coefficients shown rounded. Calculations use the stored factors before display rounding.
A worked example
For 10 L, the result is approximately 10000 mL. To go the other way, edit the result above or swap the units.
US liquid and imperial measures differ. US customary cups are 236.5882365 mL; metric cups are 250 mL. Grams need a substance density and cannot be converted directly to mL.
Where the numbers come from
Factors follow NIST conversion references and documented unit definitions. Read our accuracy and rounding notes.
