What are Gigagram and Atomic Mass Unit

Definition of Gigagram

A Gigagram, symbolized as Gg, is a unit of mass equal to one billion (1,000,000,000) grams. It's a metric unit that falls into the larger scale of mass measurements, often used in scientific contexts where large quantities of mass are discussed, such as in geology or large-scale manufacturing.

Definition of Atomic Mass Unit

An Atomic Mass Unit (u), or Dalton (Da), is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights. It is defined as one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12, at its nuclear and electronic ground state. One u is approximately equal to 1.66053906660 x 10^-27 kilograms.

Conversion of Gigagram to Atomic Mass Unit

1 Gg = 6.022 x 10^26 u
1 u = 1.66053906660 x 10^-24 Gg

Example 1:
Convert 0.0000005 Gg to u:
0.0000005 Gg = 0.0000005 x 6.022 x 10^26 u = 3.011 x 10^20 u

Example 2:
Convert 2 Gg to u:
2 Gg = 2 x 6.022 x 10^26 u = 1.2044 x 10^27 u
