The hundredweight (UK) is a unit of mass used in the United Kingdom, primarily in agriculture and industry. It is equal to 112 pounds or approximately 50.8 kilograms. The hundredweight is part of the British Imperial system and is used to measure bulk commodities like grain and livestock.
The hundredweight originated in medieval England as a unit of mass for measuring grain and other agricultural products. It was defined as 112 pounds. The term "hundredweight" comes from the Latin word "centum", meaning "hundred". The hundredweight was used in trade and agriculture for centuries and continues to be used in the UK as part of the British Imperial system.
Dalton
The dalton (Da) or unified atomic mass unit (u) is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights. It is defined as one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 in its nuclear and electronic ground state, and it is approximately equal to 1.66053906660 × 10⁻²⁷ kg.
The dalton is named after the English chemist and physicist John Dalton, who developed the atomic theory of matter. The unit was adopted in 1961 by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) to provide a standardized unit for atomic and molecular weights.
