Mass is not dependent on the forces applied to it. Weight is the force that a mass exerts due to the acceleration of gravity.

The force required to give a mass of 1 gram an acceleration of 1 meter per second squared is 0.001 Newtons, according to Newton's second law of motion (F = m*a).
Both a gram of gold and a gram of feathers have the same mass because weight is dependent on mass and gravitational acceleration. In this case, the mass is equal (1 gram), so they both exert the same amount of force on a scale, regardless of their differences in volume or density.
The gram molecular mass of hydrogen is 1 gram per mole.
The SI unit of the gram is the measure of mass. It is the basis for the units that measure force (Newton) and work (Joule).
A gram is a unit of mass in the metric system. All grams have the same mass, as 1 gram is defined as the mass of 1 cubic centimeter of water at 4 degrees Celsius.
To get acceleration when force is in Newtons and mass is in grams, you need to convert the mass from grams to kilograms (1 gram = 0.001 kg) to be consistent with the unit of force (Newton). Then you can use the formula: acceleration = force / mass.
