Drop

A drop is a small unit of volume commonly used in medicine and cooking. It is typically defined as 1/20th of a milliliter (mL) or 0.05 milliliters.

Origin:

The drop as a unit of volume has been used for centuries, particularly in medicine for administering small doses of liquid medications. The exact volume of a drop can vary depending on the liquid and the dropper used, but it is generally standardized as 0.05 milliliters.

Milliliter

A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to 1/1,000th of a liter. One milliliter is equivalent to 1 cubic centimeter (cm³) and is used to measure small volumes, especially in liquids. It is commonly used in medical, scientific, and culinary contexts for precise measurements of fluids.

Origin:

The milliliter is derived from the liter, which was introduced in the 18th century as part of the metric system during the French Revolution. The milliliter, being one thousandth of a liter, was created to measure smaller quantities of liquids or substances. The metric system's structure, based on powers of ten, made it easy to scale from larger units like the liter to smaller units like the milliliter. The milliliter has since become a standard unit of measurement in many fields, particularly in health, cooking, and scientific applications.
