What are Femtogram and Pennyweight

Definition of Femtogram

A femtogram is a unit of mass in the metric system that is equal to 10^-15 grams. It is an incredibly small unit, commonly used in scientific fields to measure tiny particles or molecules. Due to its minuscule nature, the femtogram is key for research in chemistry, physics, and biology, where precise measurement of very small masses is crucial.

Definition of Pennyweight

A pennyweight is a unit of mass that is part of the troy system, commonly used for precious metals like gold and silver. One pennyweight is equivalent to 1/20th of a troy ounce, or approximately 1.55517384 grams. The term originates from the weight of a silver penny in medieval England and remains in use today among jewelers and goldsmiths.
