Mass

Triple Beam Balance

Mass: is a measure of the amount of matter in an object

Metric standard for mass is the kilogram (kg) 1kg = 1000 g 1g = 1000 mg

Conversions using mass: 5 kg = g 3200 mg = hg

Weight:  a measure of the attraction between two objects due to gravity

 the amount of force the Earth’s gravity exerts on an object

Metric standard for weight is the newton (N)

Temperature Temperature In the Metric system temp is measured on the Celsius scale

 water freezes at 0  C and boils at 100  C
