About US teaspoon (tsp)

The US teaspoon (tsp) is a unit of culinary volume equal to approximately 4.929 milliliters, one third of a US tablespoon. It is one of the smallest standard US customary volume units, used in cooking, baking, and medicine for small ingredient quantities. The US teaspoon differs from the metric teaspoon (exactly 5 mL) and the imperial teaspoon (about 5.92 mL). In medicine, 5 mL is the standardized dosing teaspoon.

A standard dose of liquid children's medicine is one 5 mL teaspoon. A recipe calling for 1 tsp of vanilla extract uses about 4.93 mL.

About Cubic kilometer (km³)

A cubic kilometer (km³) is the volume of a cube with 1 km sides, equal to one trillion liters (10¹² L). It is used in geoscience, oceanography, glaciology, and climate science to express volumes of ice sheets, ocean basins, volcanic eruptions, and river discharge over long periods. The volume of Earth's oceans is approximately 1,335,000 km³. The Greenland ice sheet contains about 2,850,000 km³ of ice. Major volcanic eruptions are described by the dense rock equivalent (DRE) in km³.

Lake Superior holds about 12,100 km³ of water. A major explosive volcanic eruption might eject 1–1,000 km³ of material.


US teaspoon – Frequently Asked Questions

One US teaspoon equals approximately 4.929 mL, typically rounded to 5 mL in medicine and 4.93 mL in precise culinary conversions. The metric teaspoon used in Australia and Canada is exactly 5 mL.

A US teaspoon is about 4.93 mL; an imperial (UK) teaspoon is about 5.92 mL — approximately 20% larger. This difference can affect recipes crossing US and UK sources, particularly for spices and leavening agents.

In the US system, 3 teaspoons equal 1 tablespoon (3 × 4.929 mL = 14.787 mL). The metric equivalent is the same ratio: 3 × 5 mL = 15 mL tablespoon.

Not exactly. Medicine dosing uses a standardized 5 mL teaspoon, while the US cooking teaspoon is about 4.93 mL. For medication accuracy, always use a calibrated oral syringe rather than a kitchen teaspoon, which can vary from 3 to 7 mL.

There are 48 US teaspoons in one US cup: 1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons.

Cubic kilometer – Frequently Asked Questions

A cubic kilometer (km³) is the volume of a cube 1 km on each side, equal to one trillion liters or one billion cubic meters. It is the standard unit in geoscience for expressing planetary-scale volumes of water, ice, and magma.

Earth's oceans contain approximately 1,335,000 km³ of water. The world's total freshwater supply is about 35,000 km³, of which most (roughly 26,000 km³) is locked in glaciers and ice caps.

Volcanologists calculate eruption size as the Dense Rock Equivalent (DRE) in km³ — the volume of solid rock that would result if fragmented material were compressed. The 1815 Tambora eruption ejected roughly 160 km³ DRE, the largest in recorded history.

One cubic kilometer equals 1,000,000,000,000 liters (one trillion liters or one petaliter). It also equals 10⁹ m³ (one billion cubic meters).

The Greenland ice sheet contains approximately 2,850,000 km³ of ice. If fully melted, it would raise global sea level by about 7.2 meters. Annual ice loss from Greenland is measured in hundreds of km³ per year.
