Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (electron) The electron is the mass of the electron, often used as a unit of mass in particle physics. An electron has a mass of about 9.109 382 x 10E-31 kilogram, 9.109 382 x 10E-28 gram, or 0.510 9989 million electronvolts. Unit Definition (kilogram) The kilogram is the base unit of mass in the SI and MKS versions of the metric system. The kilogram is defined as the mass of the standard kilogram, a platinum-iridium bar in the custody of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) near Paris, France. Copies of this bar are kept by the standards agencies of all the major industrial nations, including the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). One kilogram equals exactly 1000 grams, or about 2.204 622 6 pounds. By design, this is approximately the mass of a liter of water.
