The Kilogram (kg) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI). One kilogram equals 1,000 grams. It's commonly used for measuring body weight, grocery products like rice or flour, and shipping parcels. For example, a 1-liter water bottle weighs about 1 kilogram. The Gram (g) is a metric unit of mass used worldwide for measuring light weights. Common examples include a paperclip (about 1 gram), a teaspoon of sugar (about 4 grams), or a chocolate bar (around 100 grams). It is widely used in cooking, grocery items, and science labs.
To convert between Kilogram (kg) and Gram (g), use the following formulas:
1 Kilogram (kg) = 1000 Gram (g)
1 Gram (g) = 0.001 Kilogram (kg)
0.5 kg = 0.5 * 1000 g = 500 g
2 kg = 2 * 1000 g = 2000 g
| Kilogram (kg) | Gram (g) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 kg | 100 g |
| 1 kg | 1000 g |
| 5 kg | 5000 g |
| 10 kg | 10000 g |
| 20 kg | 20000 g |
| 50 kg | 50000 g |
