What are Dalton and Slug

Definition of Dalton

A Dalton, often referred to as an atomic mass unit (amu), is a unit of mass equal to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. It's approximately 1.66053906660 x 10^-27 kilograms and is commonly used in biochemistry and physics to express the masses of atoms and molecules.

Definition of Slug

A Slug is a unit of mass in the imperial system, primarily used in the United States. It is defined as the mass that is accelerated by 1 foot per second squared when a force of one pound-force (lbf) is exerted on it. One slug is equivalent to approximately 14.5939 kilograms.
