How to Convert Teragram to Ounce
To convert Tg to tonnes: multiply by 10⁶. To convert Tg to Gg: multiply by 1,000.
1 Tg = 10¹² g = 10⁹ kg = 10⁶ tonnes = 1 megatonne.
For example, 1 Teragram (Tg) = 35273961950 Ounce (oz).

About Teragram (Tg)
Definition
The teragram equals 10¹² grams or one million tonnes (one megatonne).
Mathematical Relationship
1 Tg = 10¹² g = 10⁹ kg = 10⁶ tonnes = 1 megatonne.
Conversion Formula
To convert Tg to tonnes: multiply by 10⁶. To convert Tg to Gg: multiply by 1,000.
Practical Applications
Global carbon budgets (~10,000 Tg C/year from fossil fuels), volcanic eruption plume masses.
Interesting Facts
Earth's atmosphere has a total mass of about 5.15 × 10⁶ Tg (5.15 × 10¹⁸ kg).
Common Mistakes
Confusing Tg with Pg (petagram): 1 Pg = 1,000 Tg. Climate papers use both — check carefully.
Educational Tips
Global CO₂ emissions ≈ 36,000 Tg/year (or 36 Pg/year). This is a key climate number to remember.
About Ounce (oz)
Definition
The ounce (avoirdupois) is an imperial unit of mass equal to 1/16 of a pound or approximately 28.35 grams.
Mathematical Relationship
1 oz = 28.349523125 g = 1/16 lb = 437.5 grains.
Conversion Formula
To convert ounces to grams: multiply by 28.3495. To convert grams to ounces: divide by 28.3495.
Practical Applications
Food packaging (cereal boxes, cheese), postal weights, baby weight tracking (lb and oz), and cooking.
Interesting Facts
There are two different ounces: the avoirdupois ounce (28.35 g) for general use and the troy ounce (31.1 g) for precious metals. Gold is always measured in troy ounces.
Common Mistakes
Confusing avoirdupois ounces (28.35 g) with troy ounces (31.1 g). Also confusing oz (mass) with fl oz (volume).
Educational Tips
There are 16 oz in a pound. A quick gram conversion: 1 oz ≈ 30 g (for estimation).
