SI Unit of Molecular Weight
Molecular weight is the sum of atomic masses of atoms present in one mole of a molecule. It is also known as molar mass. Molar mass is generally defined as the mass of one mole of a substance.
The SI unit of molecular weight is grams/mole. Thus, it helps us to know mass of one mole of the molecule in grams. For example, molecular weight of water (H2O) is 18 grams/mole as it is made up of two hydrogen atoms having atomic mass as 1 gram each and one oxygen atom having atomic mass as 16 grams.
Unit of Weight
Unit of Weight is Newton represented as N, which is also known as the force of gravity on a mass. Weight of the body is the gravitational force by which the earth or any other planet attracts the body. Other weight units are pound-force, metric ton, slug, quintal, kilogram-force (kgf) and dyne.
In this article, we will discuss the definition of weight, unit of weight, conversion between the unit of weight in various systems, and some sample problems related to the unit of weight.
