Kilograms
Definition: A kilogram (kg) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), defined as exactly 1,000 grams.
History: The kilogram was originally defined in 1795 as the mass of one liter of water. In 1889, a platinum-iridium cylinder was established as the standard, known as the **International Prototype of the Kilogram**. In 2019, the kilogram was redefined based on the Planck constant, ensuring a more stable and precise measurement.
Grams
Definition: A gram (g) is a unit of mass in the metric system, equal to one-thousandth of a kilogram (1/1,000 kg).
History: The gram was first defined in 1795 during the French Revolution as part of the metric system, based on the mass of one cubic centimeter of water at its maximum density. It is widely used for small-scale measurements in science, medicine, and daily life.
