How to Convert Gram to Exagram
To convert grams to ounces: divide by 28.3495. To convert grams to pounds: divide by 453.592.
1 g = 0.001 kg = 1,000 mg = 10⁶ µg. There are 453.59 g in one pound.
For example, 1 Gram (g) = 1.000000e-18 Exagram (Eg).

About Gram (g)
Definition
The gram is a metric unit of mass equal to one thousandth of a kilogram, originally defined as the mass of one cubic centimeter of water at 4°C.
Mathematical Relationship
1 g = 0.001 kg = 1,000 mg = 10⁶ µg. There are 453.59 g in one pound.
Conversion Formula
To convert grams to ounces: divide by 28.3495. To convert grams to pounds: divide by 453.592.
Practical Applications
Cooking recipes, food nutrition labels, postal weight limits, jewelry, and chemistry lab measurements.
Interesting Facts
A US dollar bill weighs approximately 1 g. A standard paper clip also weighs about 1 g.
Common Mistakes
Confusing grams with ounces — 1 oz ≈ 28.35 g, not 1 g. Also, mixing up g (gram) with G (giga prefix).
Educational Tips
A paper clip = ~1 g, a nickel = 5 g, a banana = ~120 g. Build intuition with everyday objects.
About Exagram (Eg)
Definition
The exagram equals 10¹⁸ grams or 10¹⁵ kilograms — one trillion tonnes.
Mathematical Relationship
1 Eg = 10¹⁸ g = 10¹⁵ kg = 10⁹ tonnes.
Conversion Formula
To convert Eg to kg: multiply by 10¹⁵. To convert Eg to Pg: multiply by 1,000.
Practical Applications
No everyday applications. Describes masses of small moons or large asteroids.
Interesting Facts
Earth's total mass is about 5.97 × 10⁶ Eg. The entire atmosphere weighs 'only' about 5 Eg.
Common Mistakes
Hardly ever encountered — most contexts use 'times 10^x kg' notation instead of exagrams.
Educational Tips
If you need to express masses between Pg and Earth-masses, the exagram fills that gap: 1 Eg = 10¹⁵ kg.
