> A cubic centimetre (or cubic centimeter in US English) (SI unit symbol: cm³; non-SI abbreviations: cc and ccm)

> Although still widely used in physics and chemistry, the angstrom is not officially a part of the International System of Units (SI). Up to 2019, it was listed as a compatible unit by both the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) and the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). However, it is not mentioned in the 9th edition of the official SI standard, the "BIPM Brochure" (2019)[13] or in the NIST version of the same,[14] and BIPM officially discourages its use. The angstrom is also not included in the European Union's catalogue of units of measure that may be used within its internal market.
