Definition of L
< b>L: Abbreviation for liter, a metric measure of capacity that, by definition,
is equal to the volume of a kilogram of water at 4 degrees centigrade and at standard
atmospheric pressure of 760 millimeters of mercury.
Metric equivalents -- There are 1000 cubic centimeters or 1 cubic decimeter
in 1 liter.
U.S. equivalent -- A liter is a little more than a quart (1.057 U.S. liquid

The abbreviation for liter can also be written as a lower-case "l". The word
"liter" derives from the French "litre" and that, in turn, is derived from the Latin
"litra", a pound.
