Best Answer

The kilogram is the SI unit for mass.

But grams are also often used.

Additional Answer

In SI, there are 'base' (not 'basic') units and 'derived' units -which, as the name suggests, are derived from the base units. There are seven base units, including the kilogram (not the gram) for mass.

The SI unit for weight, which is the force due to gravity, is the newton, which is a derived unit.
