A megagram (Mg) is an SI unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms or one metric tonne (t), commonly used for measuring large weights.

What does the dalton measure?

The dalton (Da) is a unit of mass used mainly to express atomic and molecular weights, defined as one twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom.

Why convert megagrams to daltons?

This conversion helps relate large mass quantities to atomic or molecular scales, useful in fields bridging industrial and scientific mass measurements.
