Discover the ease of converting atomic mass units to carats with our Atomic Mass Unit to Carat Converter, powered by Newtum. Explore accurate conversions with a click!
An Atomic Mass Unit (AMU) is a standard unit of mass that quantifies the mass of atoms or molecules. It is defined as one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 in its nuclear and electronic ground state, and it is equivalent to 1.660539040(20) x 10^-27 kilograms.
Definition of CaratA carat (ct) is a unit of mass used for measuring gemstones and pearls. Currently, a carat is defined as exactly 200 milligrams (0.2 grams). The carat is divisible into 100 points of 2 milligrams each. Its usage ensures consistent measurement and comparison of gemstone weights across the global jewelry industry.
| Atomic Mass Unit (u) | Carat (ct) |
|---|---|
| 1 u | 5.0e-23 ct |
| 10 u | 5.0e-22 ct |
| 100 u | 5.0e-21 ct |
| 1000 u | 5.0e-20 ct |
| 10000 u | 5.0e-19 ct |
| 100000 u | 5.0e-18 ct |
| 1000000 u | 5.0e-17 ct |
| 10000000 u | 5.0e-16 ct |
| 100000000 u | 5.0e-15 ct |
| 1000000000 u | 5.0e-14 ct |
Example 1:
Convert 12 u to ct:
12 u = 12 × 5.0e-23 ct = 6.0e-22 ct
Example 2:
Convert 50 u to ct:
50 u = 50 × 5.0e-23 ct = 2.5e-21 ct
The Atomic Mass Unit to Carat Converter is a tool that reflects a significant milestone in the intersection of science and gemology. It bridges two distinct measurement systems, allowing for unique conversions that facilitate research, valuation, and education within disciplines requiring precise mass comparisons.
Unlock the potential of precise conversions between atomic mass units and carats to enhance scientific accuracy and gemstone valuation.
Example 1:
If you have 20 u, the conversion to ct is:
20 u = 20 × 5.0e-23 ct = 1.0e-21 ct
Example 2:
Converting 250 u to ct:
250 u = 250 × 5.0e-23 ct = 1.25e-20 ct
