What are Gigaliter and Centiliter

Definition of Gigaliter

A Gigaliter, abbreviated as GL, is a unit of volume measurement in the metric system, equivalent to one billion liters. This gigantic unit is commonly used for measuring substantial volumes of water, such as in reservoirs or large-scale industrial processes. With each Gigaliter containing a trillion milliliters, it signifies an immense quantity, often beyond everyday use.

Definition of Centiliter

A Centiliter, denoted as cL, is a metric unit of volume that equals one-hundredth of a liter. It's a smaller unit often used to quantify liquids in culinary recipes or in contexts where precise volume measurements are necessary. With 10 milliliters making up a Centiliter, this unit is practical for everyday use in a variety of settings, representing a modest volume.
