Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (qintar [Arab]) The qintar is a traditional Arabic unit of weight, often called the cantar in English. The qintar is the Arabic counterpart of the European quintal. The unit varied in size from market to market and over time. In recent years, the qintar has been interpreted as an informal metric unit equal to 50 kilograms (110.23 pounds); traditional qintars tended to be a few percent larger than this. The qintar is equal to 100 rotls. Unit Definition (electronvolt) The electronvolt is a unit of mass used in particle physics. Mass and energy are related by Einstein's famous equation, E = mc2. The constant c is the speed of light, 299.79 x 10E6 m/sec. An energy of 1 electronvolt is therefore equivalent to a mass of about 1.782 662 x 10E-33 gram, or about 1.073 544 x 10E-9 atomic mass unit.
