Conversion Definitions
qt (quart): A quart is a unit of volume used in the US customary and imperial systems. One quart equals 1/4 of a gallon or 2 pints. It is common for measuring liquids like milk or gasoline. The US liquid quart is about 0.946 liters, while the UK quart differs slightly.
liter (L): The liter is a metric unit of volume, widely used worldwide. One liter equals 1,000 cubic centimeters or one cubic decimeter. It is commonly used for measuring liquids and capacity in cooking, science, and everyday life. The liter is not an SI base unit but accepted for use with SI.
Conversion FAQs
Can I convert quarts to liters without a calculator?
You can approximate by knowing 1 quart is close to 0.95 liters. Multiplying the number of quarts by 0.95 gives an estimate, but for precise conversions, using 0.946352946 is better. Manual calculation might be less exact but useful for rough measures.
Why is the conversion factor not exactly 1?
Quarts and liters are based on different measurement systems: US customary vs metric. Because the units originate from separate standards, their sizes differ. The factor 0.946352946 reflects these differences in volume between the two units.
Do conversion factors change over time?
Conversion factors between quarts and liters are defined by international agreements and standards, so they remain stable. Changes would be rare and only if measurement definitions were revised globally, which hasn’t happened recently.
Is the quart used worldwide?
The quart is primarily used in the United States and some other countries influenced by US customary units. Most countries use liters since it’s metric, so the quart is less common internationally.
Can I convert quarts to liters for solids?
Quarts and liters measure volume, not mass, so they apply mainly to liquids or substances measured by space occupied. For solids, conversion depends on density and mass, so direct volume conversion might not be meaningful without additional information.
