The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI unit of mass. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 when expressed in the unit J⋅s, which is equal to kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and Δν Cs. —
How is weight measured? Weight is measured in grams (g) and kilograms (kg). Volume is measured in millilitres (ml) and litres (l). 1 kg = 1000 g. 1 l = 1000 ml. 1 kg is the weight of seven...
kilogram (kg), basic unit of mass in the metric system. A kilogram is very nearly equal (it was originally intended to be exactly equal) to the mass of 1,000 cubic cm of water. The pound is defined as equal to 0.45359237 kg, exactly.

What are kilograms and kilometres? 'Kilo' comes from the Ancient Greek word for 'thousand' (chilioi). So kilometre actually means 'thousand metres' and kilograms means 'thousand grams'. 1 km = 1000...
The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI base unit of mass. The kilogram is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m 2 s −1 , where the metre and second are defined in terms of c and Δ ν Cs .
1 kg = 1000 g. 1 l = 1000 ml. 1 kg is the weight of seven apples. 1 l is the volume of a carton of orange juice. Find out more by working through a topic. Metric measurements are units which...
A "gram" is the standard unit for mass. "Kilogram" is just 1 000 x the mass of the gram. To multiply by 1 000, all you have to do is move the decimal point to the right 3 times because there are 3 zeros, and to divide by 1 000 you move it 3 times to the left. For example:
