About these units
Quart (US) (qt (US))
A US quart equals 32 US fluid ounces or 946 milliliters, exactly 1/4 of a US gallon. It is commonly used for milk, juice, motor oil, and household chemicals. The quart's convenient scale makes it ideal for medium-sized liquid quantities—larger than a pint but smaller than a gallon. It remains widely used in American kitchens, automotive maintenance, and everyday shopping. Like other US customary units, the quart persists because consumers and industries have longstanding infrastructures built around it.
Drop (drop)
The drop is one of the oldest fluid measures and originally referred simply to the amount of liquid that naturally forms at the end of a dripping vessel. Because drop size depends on viscosity, surface tension, temperature, and orifice size, early medicine found drops inconsistent and unreliable. Modern medicine and chemistry sometimes define a drop as 0.05 mL, but this is only a convention used for standardized droppers—real drops can vary significantly. Despite its imprecision, the drop survives in everyday language, aromatherapy, essential oils, and household instructions ("add a few drops"). It exemplifies humanity's earliest attempts to quantify small volumes before scientific instrumentation enabled precise micro-measurement.
