Why convert from teragrams to daltons?

To translate large-scale mass measurements such as environmental pollutants into atomic or molecular units common in chemistry and biochemistry.

What does one teragram equal in daltons?

One teragram equals approximately 6.02217364335 × 10³⁵ daltons.

Are daltons suitable for measuring large masses?

No, daltons are mainly used for atomic and molecular masses, not macroscopic scales like teragrams.
