  • Illustration of Division:
  • Grain = gigatonne ÷ 6.479891e-17

What is Mass?

Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object and its resistance to acceleration (inertia). The SI base unit is the kilogram (kg), now defined by fixing the Planck constant at h = 6.62607015 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s. Mass differs from weight: weight is the gravitational force acting on a mass (measured in newtons), while mass remains constant regardless of location. Common mass units include gram (g), milligram (mg), tonne (t = 1,000 kg), pound (lb), and ounce (oz).

What is Gigatonne?

A gigatonne (symbol: Gt) is a metric unit of mass used to describe things of truly enormous weight. One gigatonne is equal to one billion metric tonnes (Read more on Gigatonne).

What is Grain?

The grain (symbol: gr) is a traditional unit of mass equal to exactly 64.79891 milligrams or approximately 0.0648 grams. Although it is no longer commonly used for everyday measurements, the grain remains an important unit for weighing bullets, gunpowder, arrows, pharmaceuticals, and precious materials. It is a non-SI unit that is still recognized in specialized industries and has historical significance in the Imperial system of units.

One grain is equal to 64.79891 milligrams, 0.06479891 grams,  0.002285714286 ounces, 0.000142857 pounds, and 0.00006479891 kilograms. The grain continues to be widely used in ballistics, ammunition, medicine, and other fields where precise small-mass measurements are required.
