Neither. Both are dry measures, not liquids so not applicable since different liquids weigh differently by volume. For example, 1 gallon of water weighs 8.34 lbs whereas 1 gallon of gasoline weighs only 6.15 lbs so selecting reagents by any unit of weight is impractical as one would have to know specific weights of the reagents. Reagents are measured by liquid volume, ounces (oz), quarts (qt) and gallons (gal) for standard measure, liters (L) or fractions thereof, i.e. milliliters (ml) for metric measure, which is the world scientific standard. To convert volume to mass: a. Look up liquid's density as it is expressed in units of "g/ml" ("d"). b. Next, measure the volume of the liquid in a graduated cylinder ("v"). c. The weight of a liquid in grams is the product of its density and volume: dv = weight conversely: v = weight/d Imagine the nightmare of working any of this out in lbs and oz - metric rules!

It is more common to weigh a wheelbarrow in kilograms because it would likely be too heavy to measure accurately in grams. Kilograms provide a more practical unit of measurement for objects of this size and weight.
Boys are typically measured in kilograms as weight measurements. This is because kilograms are a commonly used unit of measurement for weight, and it provides a more practical and accurate representation of the boy's weight compared to grams.

No, kilograms is a measure of weight. You would measure it in meters or centimeters.
Meters measure length, liters measure capacity, and kilograms measure weight.
There are no meters in kilograms, as they are different units of measurement. Kilograms measure mass, while meters measure length.

No, kilograms are not used to measure volume. Kilograms are a unit of mass, while volume is typically measured in units like liters or cubic meters.

Kilograms would be a more appropriate unit of measurement for a bicycle, as it is a larger and more suitable unit than ounces. Kilograms provide a more accurate and practical measurement for the weight of a bicycle.
A cat's weight is typically measured in kilograms to provide a larger unit that is more practical for their size. However, for more precise measurements, grams can also be used to measure a cat's weight.
