What is a metric cup?

A metric cup is a non-SI volume unit defined as exactly 250 millilitres, commonly used in cooking and nutrition in metric-based countries.

What does exaliter measure?

An exaliter is an SI-derived volume unit equal to 10^18 litres, used to express extremely large volumes like planetary water or atmospheric gases.

Why use exaliters instead of litres?

Exaliters are used to represent very large volumes on an astronomical or planetary scale where standard litres are not practical.

Simple interface for scientific and practical volume conversions.
Ideal for converting everyday volume measures to immense scales.
Browser-based and accessible without any installations.

Examples

1 cup (metric) equals 2.5e-19 exaliter [EL].
4 cups (metric) equals 1e-18 exaliter [EL].

Common Use Cases

Converting ingredient volumes in metric recipes to planetary scale units in scientific research.
Expressing global water volumes, such as Earth's oceans, in exaliters.
Describing planetary atmospheres or vast gas reservoirs in astronomy and planetary science.
Reporting large-scale water and resource inventories in climatology and geophysics.

Tips & Best Practices

Understand the scientific context for using exaliter units to interpret extremely large volumes.
Use scientific notation when dealing with very small numbers resulting from conversion.
Refer to the metric cup as a practical everyday measure calibrated as exactly 250 millilitres.
Remember that exaliter measurements are suitable only for vast, planetary-scale quantities.

Limitations

The exaliter unit is impractical for everyday use due to its enormous magnitude.
Conversions from small units create very tiny numbers that require scientific notation.
Interpreting exaliter results can be challenging without specialized scientific knowledge.
