In the metric system, these units are connected. The meter is the base unit of length, the liter is the unit of volume, and the kilogram is the base unit of mass. One cubic centimeter of water equals one milliliter and has a mass of one gram, which shows how the metric system links volume and mass. ------------------ Khan Academy is a nonprofit organization with the mission of providing a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere.
