What is a microgram used for?

A microgram is used to measure very small masses, commonly in pharmaceutical dosing, analytical chemistry, and environmental monitoring.

What does the talent unit represent?

The talent is an ancient mass unit used in Biblical Greek and antiquity, typically representing large weights of precious metals like silver or gold.

Are conversions between micrograms and talents exact?

Conversions are approximate due to the historical variation in the exact weight of the talent, and the vast difference in scale between the units.
