W03 Go on distributing water: From millilitre (mL) to microlitre (µL)

Left: Distribute the Cola of one 50-mL vial into 10 Liquemin bottles each of which contains now 5 millilitre.
Middle: Use a 1-mL syringe to remove 1 millilitre from this vial.
                   [It is divided into 100 units: 1 mL equals 1000 microlitre (µL)].
* Divide this milliltre into single drops. On the photo this resulted in 33 drops.
So 1 drop has a volume of 1000:33 = 30 microlitre (µL).
Right:   The drop in the middle was sucked back into the syringe by the needle and re-divided into "micro drops".
1 drop gave 6 micro drops, so 1 micro drop has 5 microlitre (µL).      FOR FURTHER DISTRIBUTING:"sweetened iceberg water"
