What are Dalton and Femtogram

Definition of Dalton

A Dalton, also known as the unified atomic mass unit (u), is a standard unit of mass that quantifies atoms and molecules. It is defined as one-twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom, which is approximately 1.660539040 x 10^-24 grams. The Dalton is a fundamental unit in chemistry and physics for expressing the masses of particles and is crucial for understanding molecular weight and stoichiometry in chemical reactions.

Definition of Femtogram

A Femtogram is a unit of mass in the metric system, equivalent to one quadrillionth (1x10^-15) of a gram. It's exceedingly small and used in scientific fields like chemistry, physics, and biology to measure tiny particles like atoms and molecules. The femtogram allows for quantification at scales where traditional grams are impractical due to the minuscule mass of the subjects under investigation.
