The basic SI unit is for length. Volume is a measure which is based on length-cubed and so it is a derived (not complex) unit.

∙ 8y agoVolume has an unit in the SI - cubic metre (or the submultiple litre).
This is not a base unit in SI just because can be easily derived.

What is the fundamental unit of heredity?
The fundamental unit of heredity is the complex term that is otherwise known as a "gene."
What describe density?
Amount of mass contained in a certain space There is also linear density, mass per unit length. Sometimes density is a force per unit of volume instead of a mass per unit of volume.
Why is mass used instead of volume when calculating density?
Actually, BOTH are used. You can define density as mass divided by volume (or mass per unit volume).
What metric unit of mass would you use to measure the volume of a kettle?
You don't use a unit of mass to measure a volume. Mass and volume are two different things. Mass is measured in kilograms. The main unit of volume in the SI is the cubic meter, but for a kettle, the liter (= cubic decimeter, or 1/1000 of a cubic meter) can be used instead.
What does cc mean in liquid form?
cc=Cubic Centimeters=unit of volume
3.78541 Liter equals how many Kilo gram?
Liter is a unit of volume, kilogram is a unit of mass. You have to divide the volume by the density of the substance, to get the mass.Liter is a unit of volume, kilogram is a unit of mass.

A cubic centimeter is a unit for measuring what?
A cubic centimetre (cm3) is a unit of volume (V).
Why is grams the unit of volume?
Grams is NOT a unit of volume. It is a unit of weight or mass.
Litre is unit of.?
A litre is a unit of volume.
What is the unit of fluorescence intensity?
The unit of fluorescence intensity is known as FUs. These are unitless and instead shows the light that is emitted from the longer wavelength.
Is a millimeter a unit of volume?
No, millimeter is a unit of length. MilliLITER is a unit of volume, but not millimeter.
What symbol is used to represent destiny?
Density does not have a specific "symbol" (or unit). It is instead expressed as mass/volume, or mass per unit volume. So if you had an object with a mass of 20 grams, and a volume of lets say 30 mL, it's density would be 20 grams/mL.
