What is a centiliter?

A centiliter is a metric unit of volume equal to one hundredth of a liter, commonly used for measuring small amounts of liquid in cooking and laboratory settings.

What does the UK gill measure?

The UK gill is an imperial volume unit equal to one quarter of an imperial pint, traditionally used for small liquid measures in British contexts.

Can I use this converter for scientific measurements?

Since the UK gill is not an SI unit and conversions are approximate, this converter is best used for culinary, historical, or informal purposes rather than precise scientific measurements.
