What is a proton mass?

The proton mass is the rest mass of the proton, a positively charged particle inside atomic nuclei, roughly equal to 1.67262192369×10^-27 kilograms.

A hectogram (hg) is a metric unit of mass equal to 100 grams or 0.1 kilograms, commonly used for moderate masses in everyday and technical settings.

Why convert proton mass to hectogram?

Converting proton mass to hectograms helps translate extremely small atomic-scale mass values into more usable metric units for laboratory, scientific, and practical applications.
