Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (libra [ancient Rome]) The libra [ancient Rome] is a traditional unit of weight. The libra was the Roman unit from which the English pound is descended; the symbol "lb" for the pound comes from this unit. The Roman libra contained only 12 unciae (ounces) and was about 0.722 English pound. The word "libra" is sometimes used now for the kilogram, a much larger unit. Unit Definition (millimass unit) The millimass unit is a unit of mass equal to 0.001 atomic mass unit, used in physics and chemistry. This unit is also called the millidalton (mDa). The millimass unit is an SI unit, but its proper SI symbol is mu, not the older symbol mmu.
