Definition of PetagramA Petagram is a unit of mass in the metric system equal to one quadrillion (1,000,000,000,000,000) grams or one billion (1,000,000,000) kilograms. The petagram is a colossal unit, seldom used in practice due to its immense magnitude. It is, however, valuable in scientific contexts, particularly in fields dealing with the Earth's mass or the energy released by large-scale events such as meteor impacts or volcanic eruptions.
