Unit Comments to distance, length, width, breath, and height measures
Metric ton
(t)
A metric ton is equal to 1,000,000 grams = 1,000 kilograms = 2,204 pounds = 1.102 U.S. short tons.
Kilogram
(kg, kilos)
The prefix "kilo" means 1,000, so there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. One kg = 2.205 pounds. A cube of water 10 centimeters on each side has a mass of 1 kg.
Gram
(g, gm)
A gram is 1/1000th of a kilogram. A gram is equal to the mass of water contained in a cube one cm on each side (One cubic centimeter = 1 cc = 1 cm3 of water weighs 1 gram).
Carat
(c)
Used primarily for gemstones, one carat = 0.2 gram = 0.00705 ounce. There are 5 carats in a gram.
Milligram
(mg, mgs)
The prefix "milli" means 1/1000. Therefore, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams, or 1000 mg = 1 g. 1 mg = 10-6 kg. 1 mg = 3.52·10−5 ounces.
Microgram
(mg, mgs)
The prefix "micro" means 1/1,000,000 = 10−6. Therefore, 1 microgram = 0.001 milligram = 0.000001 grams, or 1,000,000 mg = 1 g. 1 mg = 10-9 kg.
Nanogram
(ng, ngs)
The prefix "nano" means 1/1,000,000,000 = 10−9, so 1,000,000,000 ng = 109 ng = 1 g. 1 ng = 1,000 picograms. 1000 ng = 1 microgram. 1 ng = 10−12 kg.
Picogram
(pg, pgs)
The prefix "pico" means 1/1,000,000,000,000 = 10−12, so 1,000,000,000,000 pg = 1012 pg = 1 g. 1 pg = 1,000 femtograms. 1000 pg = 1 nanogram. 1 ng = 10−15 kg.
Femtogram
(fg, fgs)
The prefix "femto" means 1/1,000,000,000,000,000 = 10−15, so 1,000,000,000,000,000 fg = 1015 pg = 1 g. 1 fg = 1,000 attograms. 1000 fg = 1 picogram. 1 fg = 10−18 kg.
Attogram
(ag, ags)
The prefix "atto" means 1/1,000,000,000,000,000,000 = 10−18, so 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 ag = 1018 ag = 1 g. 1000 ag = 1 femtogram. 1 ag = 10−21 kg. For comparison, one atom of carbon weighs approximately 2·10−23 g so 50,000 atoms of carbon weigh roughly 1 attogram.
Zeptogram
(zg, zgs)
The prefix "zepto" means 1/1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = 10−21, so 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 zg = 1021 zg = 1 g. 1000 zg = 1 attogram. 1 zg = 10−24 kg. For comparison, one atom of platinum weighs approximately 3.02·10−22 g so 3 atoms of platinum weigh roughly 1 zeptogram. See also atomic mass unit.
Ton
(long ton)
In the U.S., a long ton = 1.12 short tons = 2,240 pounds = 1.016 metric tons.
Ton
(short ton)
In the U.S., a ton is 2,000 pounds = 907.18 kilograms = 0.907 metric tons. This is the "ton" that most Americans use.
Pound
(lb, lbs)
A pound is an English unit of weight. There are 16 ounces or 7,000 grains (a less common unit) or 453.592 grams in a pound.
Ounce
(oz, oz avdp)
An ounce is equal to 437.5 grains, 1/16 of a pound, or 28.350 grams. The system of having 16 ounces in a pound is called the avoirdupois system. Note:
  • An ounce is a unit of weight that is not equal to a fluid ounce which is a measure
        of volume.
  • The troy or apothecary weight system has one ounce = 480 grains = 31.103 grams
        and 12 ounces = 1 pound. That means one avoirdupois ounce is equal to
        0.910 troy ounce.
  • Dram
    (dr, dr avdp)
    Fairly uncommon. There are 256 drams in a pound. 1 dram = 27.34 grains = 1/16 ounces. Caution: apothecary drams and fluid drams are different from the avoirdupois dram.
    Grain
    (lb, lbs)
    Fairly uncommon. There are 480 grains in a troy ounce and 7,000 grains in a pound. One grain = 64.799 milligrams = 0.324 carats.
