Discover the simplicity of converting grams to daltons with our Gram to Dalton Converter. Developed by Newtum, this tool sparks curiosity and simplifies complex conversions.
A gram, symbolized as 'g', is a unit of mass in the metric system. It is defined as one thousandth of a kilogram, which is the SI base unit for mass. Initially based on the mass of a cubic centimeter of water, the gram is now precisely measured as a derivative of the kilogram.
Definition of DaltonA dalton, also known as an atomic mass unit (amu), symbolized as '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 rest, in its ground state, and equals to approximately 1.66053906660 x 10^-27 kilograms.
| Gram (g) | Dalton (Da) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 g | 6.022 x 10^21 Da |
| 0.1 g | 6.022 x 10^22 Da |
| 1 g | 6.022 x 10^23 Da |
| 2 g | 1.2044 x 10^24 Da |
| 5 g | 3.011 x 10^24 Da |
| 10 g | 6.022 x 10^24 Da |
| 20 g | 1.2044 x 10^25 Da |
| 50 g | 3.011 x 10^25 Da |
| 100 g | 6.022 x 10^25 Da |
| 200 g | 1.2044 x 10^26 Da |
1 g = 6.022 x 10^23 Da
1 Da = 1.66053906660 x 10^-24 g
Example 1:
Convert 2 g to Da:
2 g = 2 x 6.022 x 10^23 Da = 1.2044 x 10^24 Da
Example 2:
Convert 0.5 g to Da:
0.5 g = 0.5 x 6.022 x 10^23 Da = 3.011 x 10^23 Da
