Understanding Weight & Mass Converter

Weight vs Mass

Mass is amount of matter (kg), weight is gravitational force (N). Everyday usage often conflates them.

Kilogram Standard

Since 2019, the kg is defined by Planck's constant, not a physical prototype.

Imperial Origins

The pound comes from Roman 'libra' (lb). Stone (14 lbs) is used in UK for body weight.

Cooking/Baking

Professional baking uses weight for consistency. 1 cup flour ≈ 120g but varies!
