Conversion Definitions
Quart (qt): A quart is a unit of volume measurement in the US customary and British imperial systems, used for liquids and dry goods. One US liquid quart equals 1/4th of a US gallon or 32 fluid ounces. It is widely used for cooking and liquid measurements in the United States.
Liter (L): Liter is a metric unit of volume, equal to one cubic decimeter (dm³). It is used internationally for measuring liquid volumes, commonly in science, cooking, and industry. One liter equals 1,000 milliliters or about 33.814 fluid ounces in US measurements.
Conversion FAQs
Are quarts and liters interchangeable in recipes?
While both measure volume, quarts and liters are from different measurement systems. Recipes using quarts are usually US customary, so converting to liters ensures accuracy, especially outside the US. Use the conversion factor 1 qt = 0.946352946 L for correct measurement.
Can I convert dry quarts to liters the same way?
Dry quarts and liquid quarts differ slightly in volume. The conversion factor given applies to US liquid quarts. For dry quarts, the volume is different, so the direct conversion may lead to errors. Always confirm the type of quart before converting.
Why is the conversion factor not exactly 1?
The quart and liter are based on different measurement systems; quart being part of the US customary system, liter part of metric. Because of these systems’ definitions, 1 quart equals approximately 0.94635 liters, not exactly 1, reflecting the difference in unit sizes.
Is the conversion factor the same for UK quarts?
No, the UK (imperial) quart is larger than the US quart. One UK quart equals about 1.13652 liters. This guide uses US quarts, so make sure you know which quart type applies for conversions to liters.
How precise is the conversion factor?
The factor 0.946352946 is exact for US liquid quarts defined by standards. For practical purposes, rounding to 0.94635 or 0.9464 is common, but for scientific or precise work, use the full decimal value to avoid small errors.
