Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (liang [China]) The liang is a traditional Chinese weight unit. During the European colonial period the liang was equal to 1/16 catty, 1/12 pound, or about 37.8 grams; this made it the same as a tael. In modern China, the liang equals 1/10 jin or 10 qian; this is exactly 50 grams (1.7637 ounces). Unit Definition (quintal [French]) The quintal [French] is a traditional unit of weight in France. The traditional French quintal equaled 100 livres (48.95 kilograms or 107.9 pounds), but today the word "quintal" in France usually means a larger metric unit.
