A Mass Converter is a tool that allows you to convert between different units of mass or weight. Mass is a fundamental quantity in physics, and it is typically used to measure the amount of matter in an object. Mass can be measured in a variety of units depending on the system used (metric, imperial, or others).
Common Units of Mass:
- Kilogram (kg): The SI unit of mass. It is the standard unit used worldwide for measuring mass.
- Gram (g): A smaller unit of mass. 1 kg = 1,000 grams.
- Milligram (mg): 1/1,000th of a gram. Commonly used in medicine and chemistry.
- Tonne (t): Also known as a metric ton. 1 tonne = 1,000 kg.
- Pound (lb): A unit of mass in the imperial system, primarily used in the United States and some other countries. 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg.
- Ounce (oz): A smaller unit of mass. 1 oz = 1/16 lb = 28.3495 g.
- Stone (st): A unit commonly used in the UK, especially for measuring body weight. 1 stone = 14 lb.
- Carat (ct): A unit used to measure gemstones and pearls. 1 carat = 200 mg.
- Grain (gr): A tiny unit of mass used for measuring very small quantities (e.g., in chemistry or ammunition). 1 grain = 64.79891 mg.
