About these units

Gram (g)

The gram is one-thousandth of a kilogram and is widely used in everyday life for measuring food, medicines, small components, and scientific samples. Its scale is convenient for objects too light to measure in kilograms yet too heavy for milligrams. Chemists, biologists, and lab technicians rely heavily on grams to quantify reagents, biological specimens, powders, and liquids. The gram appears frequently in nutrition labels, recipes, and manufacturing specifications. As a metric unit, the gram benefits from simplicity and ease of conversion—just move the decimal to reach milligrams or kilograms. Its intuitive scale makes it one of the most universally recognized units in the world.

Dekagram (dag)

A dekagram, equal to 10 grams, is used more commonly in parts of Europe, particularly in culinary contexts such as baking or meat sales. Its size is practical for recipes, nutrition labeling, and small food packages. It avoids large numbers in grams without jumping to the heftier hectogram or kilogram. While less familiar in English-speaking countries, the dekagram is valued in regions where metric cooking traditions are strong.
