Volume (Dimension)
Volume is a fundamental physical quantity measuring the three-dimensional space enclosed by a boundary or occupied by matter. In the International System of Units (SI), the coherent derived unit of volume is the cubic meter (m³). Across scientific and everyday contexts, non-SI units like the liter, as well as Imperial and United States customary units such as gallons and fluid ounces, are widely employed to measure liquid and dry capacities.
