Convert 0.1 liter to milliliters. What is the equivalent volume?

  • A. 1 ml
  • B. 10 ml
  • C. 100 ml
  • D. 1000 ml
Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply the number of liters by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.1 liter is equal to 100 milliliters. Choice A (1 ml) is incorrect because it represents the conversion of 0.01 liters, not 0.1 liters. Choice B (10 ml) is incorrect as it also represents the conversion of 0.01 liters. Choice D (1000 ml) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 1 liter, not 0.1 liter.
