Femtogram [fg]

The femtogram is a metric unit of mass equal to one-quadrillionth of a gram.

• 
  

  1 femtogram = 0.000000000000001 grams = 10⁻¹⁵ grams

  
  
• 
  

  1 femtogram = 10⁻¹⁸ kilograms

  
  
• 
  

  Symbol: fg

  
  

Key Facts:

• 
  

  Used in highly sensitive scientific research, including molecular biology, physics, and nanotechnology

  
  
• 
  

  The prefix "femto-" means $10^{-15}$ (one quadrillionth)

  
  
• 
  

  Measures incredibly small masses such as molecules, atoms, and nanoparticles

  
  

The femtogram allows for the detection and measurement of ultrafine masses at the atomic and molecular scale.

Gram (g)

The gram is a unit of mass in the metric system and a derived unit in the SI (International System of Units).

• 
  

  It is defined as one-thousandth of a kilogram:
  
  1 gram = 0.001 kilograms (10⁻³ kg)

  
  
• 
  

  Symbol: g

  
  
• 
  

  The gram is commonly used to measure small quantities of mass, such as in cooking, medicine, and science.

  
  

Key Facts:

• 
  

  1 g = 1/1000 of a kilogram

  
  
• 
  

  Widely used in daily life and science for small masses

  
  
• 
  

  Metric and SI-compatible

  
  

Though the kilogram is the SI base unit for mass, the gram is more practical for everyday use.
