The pound, denoted by 'lb', is a unit of mass used in the imperial and United States customary systems. It is legally defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms. The pound has historical roots dating back to Roman and Anglo-Saxon units of measurement and has evolved through various definitions over the centuries.
Definition of DaltonA Dalton, symbol Da, also known as the unified atomic mass unit (u), is a unit of mass widely used in physics and chemistry. It is defined as one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 at rest and in its ground state. One Dalton is approximately 1.66053906660 x 10^-27 kilograms.
| Pound (lb) | Dalton (Da) |
|---|---|
| 0.001 lb | 2.7316 x 10^23 Da |
| 0.01 lb | 2.7316 x 10^24 Da |
| 0.1 lb | 2.7316 x 10^25 Da |
| 1 lb | 2.7316 x 10^26 Da |
| 10 lb | 2.7316 x 10^27 Da |
| 50 lb | 1.3658 x 10^28 Da |
| 100 lb | 2.7316 x 10^28 Da |
| 500 lb | 1.3658 x 10^29 Da |
| 1000 lb | 2.7316 x 10^29 Da |
| 10000 lb | 2.7316 x 10^30 Da |
1 lb = 2.7316 x 10^26 Da
1 Da = 3.6609 x 10^-27 lb
Example 1:
Convert 2 lb to Da:
2 lb = 2 x 2.7316 x 10^26 Da = 5.4632 x 10^26 Da
Example 2:
Convert 5.5 lb to Da:
5.5 lb = 5.5 x 2.7316 x 10^26 Da = 1.5024 x 10^27 Da
The Pound to Dalton Converter is a modern tool that has emerged from the intersection of classical mass measurements and atomic-scale mass units. Converting pounds, a macroscopic unit, to daltons, a microscopic unit, embodies the progress of scientific tools enabling precise conversions across different scales of measurement.
Explore the practical significance of seamlessly converting pounds to daltons, a feature crucial in various scientific fields and applications.
Example 1:
Convert 3 lb to Da:
