Understanding Weight and Mass Conversion
What is Weight vs. Mass?
Technically, weight is a force (measured in Newtons), while mass is the amount of matter in an object (measured in kilograms). However, in everyday usage, we often use "weight" to refer to mass, and this calculator follows common usage.
Common Weight Units
- •Metric: Micrograms, milligrams, grams, kilograms, metric tons
- •Imperial/US: Grains, ounces, pounds, stones, tons
- •Troy: Troy ounces and pounds (precious metals)
- •Scientific: Atomic mass units, slugs
Conversion Tips
Quick Estimates:
- • 1 kg ≈ 2.2 pounds
- • 1 pound = 16 ounces
- • 1 stone = 14 pounds
- • 1 metric ton = 1000 kg
Weight Applications
- • Body weight and health monitoring
- • Cooking and baking recipes
- • Shipping and postal services
- • Industrial and manufacturing processes
- • Scientific research and laboratory work
- • Precious metals and gemstone trading
Conversion Formula
Weight conversion follows this general principle:
Weight₂ = Weight₁ × (Conversion Factor₁→₂)
Our calculator converts all units to kilograms as the base unit, then converts to your desired unit for maximum precision.
Important Note:
The relationship between mass and weight is: Weight = Mass × Gravitational Acceleration. On Earth, this means an object with 1 kg of mass weighs about 9.8 Newtons.
