NOTE:
Originally convention had it that the gram was to be
the base unit for MASS but
familiarity and
convenience seemed to determine that the kilogram
be
the Base Unit for MASS.
Because it is all Simply Related in 10.

Those little grams can sure
go a long way.
The mass of 1 g (gram)
is
a unit of measure
that you can hardly feel on the end of your finger.
DID
YOU KNOW?
( Video)
that you can divide
1 meter
by exactly
10 equal parts
(10 x 10 x 10 cm)
now make
a cube
(1 000 cm³) of it
to fill with water
and you will find that it contains
exactly
1 L
(1 liter)
(1 000 mL)
of water
and is the mass
of exactly 1
kg
(1 kilogram)
(1 000 g).
