Best Answer

One kilogram is 1000 grams. The base unit of mass in the International System, equal to 1,000 grams. 1 cubic decimeter of pure water is 1 liter and weigh 1 kilogram. Scroll down to related links and look at "Kilogram".

In the metric system, chemical engineers once used the kilogram-mole (noted kg-mol), which is defined as the number of entities in 12 kg of 12-C, and often referred to the mole as the gram-mole (noted g-mol), when dealing with laboratory data. However modern chemical engineering practice is to use the kilomole (kmol), which is identical to the kilogram-mole, but whose name and symbol adopt the SI convention for standard multiples of metric units.
