Centigrams (cg)

Definition

A centigram (cg) is a metric unit of mass equal to one hundredth of a gram (0.01 g) or 10 milligrams.

History

The centigram is part of the original metric prefix system. While it has never been widely used in everyday life, it serves as a useful intermediate unit in some educational and technical contexts.

Current use

Centigrams are rarely used in modern practice. They may appear in European pharmaceutical specifications, some chemistry educational materials, and certain specialized industrial measurements.

Definition

A stone (st) is an imperial unit of mass equal to 14 pounds or approximately 6.35029 kilograms.

History

The stone has been used as a weight measure in England and Ireland since at least the 14th century. Different commodities historically used different stone weights; the 14-pound stone was standardized in 1835 by the British Weights and Measures Act.
