Decigram [dg]

The decigram is a metric unit of mass equal to one-tenth of a gram.

• 
  

  1 decigram = 0.1 grams

  
  
• 
  

  1 decigram = 10⁻⁴ kilograms

  
  
• 
  

  Symbol: dg

  
  

Key Facts:

• 
  

  Used for measuring small masses, often in laboratory or pharmaceutical contexts

  
  
• 
  

  The prefix "deci-" means $10^{-1}$ (one-tenth)

  
  
• 
  

  Smaller than a gram but larger than a centigram

  
  

The decigram is useful for precise measurement of small quantities where grams are too large a unit.

Electron Mass (Rest)

The rest mass of an electron is the intrinsic mass of an electron when it is at rest (not moving relative to an observer).

Its value is approximately 9.109 × 10⁻³¹ kilograms (or about 0.511 MeV/c² in energy units).

This tiny mass is fundamental to atomic and particle physics, influencing how electrons behave in atoms and electric currents.

Summary:

• 
  

  Rest mass ≈ 9.109 × 10⁻³¹ kg

  
  
• 
  

  Equivalent to about 0.511 MeV/c²

  
  
• 
  

  Fundamental property of the electron in physics
