Neutron Mass
The neutron mass (m_n) is the mass of a neutron, a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom, approximately 1.675 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms.
History/Origin
The neutron was discovered in 1932 by James Chadwick, leading to the understanding of its mass relative to protons and electrons. The neutron mass has been refined through experimental measurements in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The neutron mass is used in nuclear physics calculations, atomic mass units, and in the 'Weight and Mass' converter for scientific and educational purposes, as part of the 'Common Converters' category.
Hectogram
A hectogram (hg) is a unit of mass equal to 100 grams.
History/Origin
The hectogram is part of the metric system, introduced in the 19th century as a decimal-based system for standardizing measurements, primarily used in scientific and everyday contexts.
Current Use
The hectogram is used in some countries for measuring food and other small quantities, especially in the context of nutrition labels and grocery shopping, but is less common than grams and kilograms.
