About Kilogram (kg)
The base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), defined since 2019 by fixing the numerical value of the Planck constant. Kilograms are the global standard for scientific measurement, shipping weights, food packaging in most of the world, and body weight outside the United States. One kilogram of water occupies almost exactly one liter, a design feature of the metric system that makes unit conversions across mass, volume, and density remarkably clean.
About Ounce (oz)
An imperial unit of mass equal to 1/16 of a pound (approximately 28.35 grams). Ounces are the everyday small-mass unit in the US for food portions, boxing-glove weights, ingredient measurements in American cookbooks, and postal rates for small packages. The avoirdupois ounce used here is distinct from the troy ounce (~31.1 g) used exclusively for precious metals — a common source of confusion when comparing gold or silver quotes to grocery scales.
