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 10110^{-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.



Grain [gr]


The grain (gr) is one of the oldest units of mass, traditionally used in various weight systems including troy, apothecary, and avoirdupois.


One grain is defined as exactly 64.79891 milligrams (0.0648 grams). It was originally based on the weight of a single grain of barley or wheat.


Grains are still commonly used today to measure small quantities such as the weight of bullets, arrows, and some pharmaceuticals.


Summary:



  • 1 grain = 64.79891 milligrams (0.0648 grams)



  • Used in troy, apothecary, and avoirdupois systems



  • Common in ammunition and medicine measurements
