368 views

To measure 10cc accurately, use a kitchen or culinary syringe, as they typically have clear markings for precise measurements. Alternatively, a small measuring cup with milliliter (ml) markings can work, since 10cc is equivalent to 10ml. Ensure the tool is placed on a flat surface when measuring liquid to avoid errors. Eye level verification of the meniscus, which is the curve at the liquid’s surface, will also help achieve an accurate measurement.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What is the difference between cc and ml? CC (cubic centimeters) and ml (milliliters) are equivalent; 1 cc equals 1 ml, making them interchangeable in most contexts.
  2. What tools can I use to measure 10cc? You can use a kitchen syringe or small measuring cup with milliliter markings to measure 10cc precisely.
  3. How do I ensure an accurate measurement when using a syringe? Place the syringe on a flat surface and check the measurement at eye level to accurately read the meniscus of the liquid.
  4. Can I measure 10cc with a tablespoon? While it's possible, it's less accurate because a standard tablespoon holds approximately 15cc; for precise measurements, use a syringe or measuring cup.
