Yes, for the metric system the base unit of measurement for liquids is a liter. That is just the base unit. There are also all the "derived" units for example mL (milliliters) which are 1/1000th of a liter. Some common derived units are:

  • Milliliter – ml
  • Centiliter – cl
  • Kiloliter – kl

Now if you aren't using the metric system and are still using the U.S. Customary Units there are a few different units used to measure volume of liquid:

  • Fluid ounce – fl. oz.
  • Cup
  • Pint
  • Quart
  • Liquid Gallon

These are more difficult to convert from one unit to another.

Different professions use different measurements, so there is no THE unit.

Some chemists often use the Millilitres (Ml) but the most common Unit for Volume in Chemistry internationally would be Centimetres cubed (CM3) as it does not matter if it is solid, liquid or gas and so can be used universally.
