Would you use grams or kilograms to weigh a spoon?
I would use grams because grams would give you more significant figures for the measurement than kilograms
Would you weigh a person in kilograms or grams?
Probably use kilograms, they're bigger than pounds. Most other countries use kilograms. Example: I weigh 120 pounds, which means I also weigh 54 kilograms.
Explain whether you would use grams or kilograms to weigh a letter?
I would use a postal scale to weigh the letter. Once I knew the weight, I could express it in any unit of force, but 'grams' would probably result in the most convenient number.
Would you use kilograms or grams to describe the mass of 10 paper clips?
paper clips do not weigh much, perhaps a gram each, so 10 weigh about 10 grams, so you would use grams, not kilograms, since 1 kg = 1000 grams
What would you use to weigh a canalop grams or kilograms?
As far as I can tell there is no such thing as a canalop! So it does not matter whether you use grams or kilograms - the measure will be zero in either case.
