Picogram
A picogram (pg) is a unit of mass equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a gram.
History/Origin
The picogram was introduced as part of the metric system to measure extremely small masses, especially in scientific and laboratory contexts, as a subdivision of the gram in the SI unit system.
Current Use
Picograms are used in scientific fields such as biology, chemistry, and physics to measure very small quantities of substances, including DNA, proteins, and other microscopic materials.
Exagram
An exagram (Eg) is a unit of mass equal to 10^18 grams, used to measure extremely large quantities of mass.
History/Origin
The exagram is a relatively recent addition to the metric system, introduced to facilitate the measurement of very large masses in scientific and industrial contexts, aligning with the SI prefixes for large units.
Current Use
Exagrams are primarily used in scientific research, astronomy, and large-scale industrial applications to quantify massive amounts of material or celestial bodies.
