Understanding Mass and Weight Conversion

Mass vs Weight

In everyday use, "mass" and "weight" are often used interchangeably, but they represent different physical concepts:

  • Mass: Amount of matter in an object (constant everywhere)
    Measured in grams, kilograms
  • Weight: Force due to gravity acting on mass
    Varies with gravitational field strength

Conversion Formulas

Standard Ounces

grams = ounces × 28.349523125

ounces = grams ÷ 28.349523125

Troy Ounces

grams = troy_ounces × 31.1034768

troy_ounces = grams ÷ 31.1034768

📊 Units of Mass
