Cubic metre

: A cubic metre of pure water at the temperature of maximum density (3.983 °C) and standard atmospheric pressure (101.325 kPa) has a mass of , or one tonne, which makes its maximum density at 101.325 kPa 1 Mg/m3. At 0 °C, the freezing point of water, a cubic metre of water has slightly less mass, 999.85 kilograms. The "cubic metre" symbol is encoded by Unicode at code point . == Multiples and submultiples ==
