    How do you solve problems with conversion of metric units (also known as SI units). These are units like cubic centimeters, cubic millimeters, cubic meters, cm^3, mm^3, m^3, and milliliters (mL), and liters (L). One cubic centimeters is the same as one milliliter, and one cubic decimeter (dm) is the same as one liter.

    I have spent a week crying over Chemistry. This class is fully online with zero face to face lectures and to say I have been struggling is an understatement. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. These are some of the first videos that have actually helped me. Plus this one deals with exactly what I was struggling with... CUBIC THINGS. You rock.

    Tyler, thank you SO much for this easy explanation! I was stuck listening to a chemistry lecture that had a very long and complicated way to get to the same answer, and I figured out how to do conversions through your video in 1/4 the time! You're an excellent teacher, and you've gotten me more excited to learn chemistry. I look forward to watching more of your videos.

      @marothen577 9 років тому +4

      witchgirl67 100 cm = 1 m. You cube this, just like he did in the video. (100 cm)^3 = (1 m)^3. 1000000 cm^3 = 1 m^3

    • @whocareswho
      @whocareswho 8 років тому

      To liters:
      10 dm * 0.56 dm * 2.1 dm = 11.76 dm^3 or (rounded to) 12 liters.
      To cubic meters:
      1.0 m * 0.056 m * 0.21 m = 0.01176 m^3 or rounded to 0.012 m^3.
