A diameter is measured with units of length, not with units of weight. Any unit of length will do.

How you would measure weight is is with a scale
Then (assuming Earth's diameter didn't change), weight would also double.Then (assuming Earth's diameter didn't change), weight would also double.Then (assuming Earth's diameter didn't change), weight would also double.Then (assuming Earth's diameter didn't change), weight would also double.
A tape measure or ruler.
You would use the gram to measure the weight of a grasshopper
Try grams
Meter.... or more likely millimeters
You should clarify what you want to measure about it: its diameter, mass, weight, color, etc. If you want to measure its diameter, that would usually be specified in microns (= micrometers).
calipers to get diameter. Scale to get weight.
You could use a simple ruler, or a micrometer for greater accuracy.
The answer depends on which characteristic you wish to measure: its diameter, volume, mass, weight, etc.

You would measure a nickel in a Graduated Cylinder. Coins are normally measured in grams for weight and mm for diameter and thickness. A U.S. nickel weighs 5 gm, is 21.2 mm in diameter, and is 2 mm thick.
