If I'm reading this right, you need the conversion
[ 1 cm3 ] = [ 1 ml ]
and the formula for a portion of a sphere:
+V+=+%281%2F3%29%2Api%2Ah%5E2%2A%28+3r+-+h+%29+
+r+=+2.5+ cm
+h+=+2.3+ cm
---------------------
+V+=+%281%2F3%29%2Api%2A2.3%5E2%2A%28+3%2A2.5+-+2.3+%29+
+V+=+5.5397%2A%28+7.5+-+2.3+%29+
+V+=+5.5397%2A5.2+
+V+=+28.8064+ cm3
It will hold 28.8064 ml of water
