What is Troy ounce ?

A Troy ounce (oz t) is a unit of weight measurement primarily used in the precious metals industry, such as for gold, silver, platinum, and other precious metals. It is different from the standard (avoirdupois) ounce commonly used in everyday contexts. One troy ounce is equivalent to approximately 31.1035 grams.

To clarify:
- 1 troy ounce = 31.1035 grams
- 1 gram ≈ 0.03215 troy ounces

In everyday terms, a troy ounce represents a slightly larger amount of weight compared to a standard ounce. For example, a typical gold coin or bar might weigh about 1 troy ounce.

Troy ounces are used in the international market for precious metals and are crucial for pricing and trading these commodities. They are also used in jewelry making, where the weight of precious metals determines their value. The troy ounce measurement system dates back centuries and is based on historical trading practices of precious metals.

Understanding troy ounces is important for investors, jewelers, and professionals in the precious metals industry. It ensures accurate measurement and pricing of precious metals, facilitating fair trade and transactions globally. While troy ounces are not commonly used in everyday transactions outside the precious metals industry, they play a vital role in international commerce and finance related to precious metals.


What is Kilogram ?

A Kilogram (kg) is the fundamental unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the mass of the International Prototype of the Kilogram (IPK), a platinum-iridium cylinder kept at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) in France.

In practical terms, a kilogram is roughly equal to the mass of 1 liter of water. It is used worldwide as the standard unit for measuring mass in scientific, commercial, and everyday contexts. For example, when you weigh yourself on a scale, your weight is typically measured in kilograms.

Understanding the kilogram is important because it provides a consistent and universal way to quantify mass across different countries and scientific disciplines. It serves as a basis for measurements in fields such as physics, chemistry, engineering, and medicine, ensuring accurate and standardized results in scientific experiments and industrial applications.
