What are Ton and Gram

Definition of Ton

A ton, specifically the long ton, is a unit of weight commonly used in the United Kingdom and is equivalent to 2,240 pounds or approximately 1,016 kilograms. It originated from the tun, an ancient measure for wine and other commodities. The ton is primarily used in shipping, freight, and other industries where large quantities of material need to be measured. Unlike the short ton used in the United States, the long ton is part of the imperial system, emphasizing its historical significance in trade and commerce.

A gram is a metric unit of mass, defined as one-thousandth of a kilogram. Originating from the late 18th century during the French Revolution, it was part of the push towards a standard metric system. The gram is widely used in various fields, from scientific research to everyday cooking, due to its precision and ease of use. It allows for accurate measurement of small quantities, making it essential in industries like pharmaceuticals, jewelry, and food. The gram's universal recognition underlines its utility and importance in global commerce.
