About Liters and Tablespoons
Liters (L): One cubic decimeter, or 1,000 cubic centimeters; one liter of water at standard conditions weighs almost exactly one kilogram, a coincidence that made the unit popular for everyday volume measurement. Common uses: Beverage container sizes, fuel (especially outside the US, where fuel is sold by the liter), engine displacements, and large-volume cooking and chemistry.
Tablespoons (tbsp): Three teaspoons, or about 15 mL; the US legal tablespoon is exactly 14.7868 mL, although international cooking convention is 15 mL. Common uses: Mid-range cooking measurements (oil, vinegar, honey, peanut butter), baking (small quantities of cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking soda).
