Der (außerhalb der Schweiz auch: das) Liter ist eine Einheit für das Volumen und wird durch die Einheitenzeichen oder symbolisiert oder mit Ltr. abgekürzt. Ein Liter entspricht einem Kubikdezimeter (dm³). Ein Würfel mit einer Kantenlänge von 10 cm hat demnach ein Volumen von einem Liter. Der Liter gehört zwar nicht zum Internationalen Einheitensystem (SI), ist zum Gebrauch mit dem SI aber zugelassen. Durch nationale Gesetze ist der Liter eine gesetzliche Maßeinheit.
